Features

notes

With a sturdy stem to resist wind and rain, Tulip Negrita is an asset in the spring garden. Bearing rich magenta–purple goblet blooms, it is easy to see why this is a popular variety of tulip. The petals have a satiny finish and an intensity of colour that draws the eye.

Insights

Best planted en-masse for maximum impact but they also look brilliant grown in a spring container display.
