The tulip is a stalwart of the late-spring garden. There are hundreds to choose from, including traditional, single cup-shaped varieties, double-flowered cultivars and those with elegant, goblet-shaped flowers. Tulips grow best in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. However, they don’t always come back the following year and are therefore often best treated as annuals.

Tulipa 'Atlantis' produces large cup-shaped purple flowers with cream edges. It makes for an interesting plant with greyish green foliage and two-toned blooms that open to reveal a darker blue centre. Grow Tulipa 'Atlantis' in full sun or partial shade, planting bulbs 15cm deep and 10-15cm apart, in well-drained soil.
