Tulip ‘Cartouche’ (10 bulbs)

Tulipa ‘Cartouche’ is a double peony tulip that features pretty cupped petals of white and cream, splashed with pink along the edges. As the blooms mature, this deep pink along the edge will become more pronounced.

Blooming throughout mid and late spring, these bulbs will reach a height of around 40cm/16″, with tall rigid stems that are able to withstand heavy wind and rain.

For an impactful and captivating display, plant bulbs together en masse in groups of at least 10-15, alongside other colourful spring flowering bulbs. These bulbs can be used in beds, borders, containers or rock gardens and can also excel as cut flowers.

‘Cartouche’ tulips will grow in a wide range of soils, acid, alkaline or neutral, provided there is good drainage, ideally in a position of full sun. Plant the bulbs approximately 15cm/6″ deep and 10cm/4″ apart.
