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 'Christmas Dream' bears beautiful large egg shaped flowers in a rich rose pink, fading to silver-pink at the petal edges. It blooms very early in the season and makes an excellent cut flower.

Tulips grow best in sunny positions, in well drained soil. As they require a cold period to produce foliage and blooms, ensure they're planted before the last frost. For best results, plant Tulipa 'Christmas Dream' at a depth of 15cm.
