Tulip ‘Miniature Everlasting Mixed’ will come back year after year just as strongly as your favourite perennials, and now in miniature form! Small, sturdy and colourful, these magnificent tulips begin to bloom in early April, and with superb weather resistance they will continue for longer than most garden varieties. The bold colours and strong upright stems make this mix particularly good for cutting and their smaller size makes for a good contrasting appearance to their larger counterparts. Height: 20cm (8″). Spread: 10cm (4″).
Culinary note: Some parts of these flowers are edible. However, some people have had strong allergic reactions to Tulip flowers. If touching them causes a rash, numbness etc. then Tulip flowers should not be eaten.
Growing Information
Plant tulip bulbs in late summer or autumn. Tulips will grow well in any moist, well drained soil, except for particularly wet soils. Choose a sunny position that is sheltered from strong winds. When planting tulip bulbs avoid shallow planting as this may reduce the winter cold period that is essential for tulip bulbs to produce flowers in spring. Plant them at a depth of 15cm (6″) and at a distance of 13cm (5″) apart.
