Tulip ‘Apeldoorn’ (10 bulbs)

Tulipa ‘Apeldoorn’ belongs among the most beloved classical red tulips, featuring egg-shaped, scarlet-cherry red flowers, sat atop tall sturdy stems and broad lance-shaped leaves.

Blooming in the spring, providing an early flush of colour to the garden, these bulbs will grow to a height of around 50cm. They are also excellent naturalisers and will come back year after year.

For the best visual impact, plant in groups of at least 10-15 among other spring flowering bulbs for a stunning and colourful display in beds, borders, containers and rock gardens. These tulips will also excel as cut flowers.

‘Apeldoorn’ tulips will grow in a wide range of different soils, acidic, alkaline or neutral, provided there is good drainage, preferably in a position of full sun. Plant the bulbs at a depth of 15cm/6″ and a spread of 10cm/4″.
