Tulipa 'The First' Bulbs

The Tulip 'The First' bulbs have an early flowering cycle compared to other Tulips and blooms with wide, open petals that bask in the sunshine. This hardy variety is low-maintenance and perennial, guaranteeing years of colourful gardens. These vibrant blooms are pure white and have a carmine red, flushed yellow base on the reverse. Furthermore, the plant stands at a mere 20cm, making it ideal for container gardens, rockeries and borders.

The First Tulip flowers in March and will grow well in a wide variety of conditions, but will prefer fertile, well drained soil in a sunny or partially shaded area.
