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 ‘Bestseller’ is a lovely tulip, bearing orange flowers with hints of red and yellow. Growing to a height of 35cm, ‘Bestseller’ is perfect for growing in a mixed herbaceous border, especially among plants with contrasting flower colours.
