Tulipa ‘Praestans Fusilier’ is an award winning multi-headed tulip variety producing up to four blooms per stem of striking and brilliant, cup-shaped scarlet flowers.

Flowering through April and May, these plants will reach a height of around 25cm/10″ with broad, wavy and pointed green leaves.

These naturalising spring bulbs will continue flowering, year upon year, in borders, around shrubs and conifers and in containers on terraces and balconies. They can also be spread into grass in order to gradually naturalise over time creating swathes of early season colour. Irrespective of location, they should ideally be planted together in groups for the greatest visual impact.

‘Praestans Fusilier’ tulip bulbs are able to be grown in almost any soil, be it acid, alkaline or neutral, provided there is good drainage. Look for an area of full sun, preferably in a place where tulips have not been grown in recent years. Plant the bulbs approximately 10cm/4″ deep and 10cm/4″ apart.
