FFF141 - TULIP 'QUEENSLAND'

Tulipa ‘Queensland’ has delicately fringed petals in a striking pinkish-white colour. They are double-flowering and look stunning as a cut flower, which is long-lasting in a vase and evokes a Spring-time atmosphere.

'Queensland' tulips grow well in pots or window-boxes. Make sure you use fresh potting compost and put a layer of gravel or hydro granules in the bottom. Place the bulbs in a hole that is 3 times as deep as the height of the bulbs. A 5 cm bulb should therefore be planted in a 15 cm hole. Planting distance between 'Queensland' tulips is about 6 cm. To protect the bulbs grown in a pot against frost, place the pot in a frost-free area or cover it with bubble wrap. Water during dry periods.

    when looking at the top, it almost looks like vegetable:) I have seen these tulips on pics, but not with my own eyes yet - inventive and creative!

    What an exciting flower! I've read that the biggest problem with tulips is that they hate water in their dormant period. Maybe I'll try some in pots.
