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 ‘Rems Favourite’ bears white flowers tinged with purple at the base. Flowers are an elegant, traditional shape and are borne on sturdy stems. Tulipa ‘Rems Favourite’ is perfect for growing as part of a spring container display, or in drifts at the front of a mixed herbaceous border.
