Tulipa 'Wyndham'
New in 2020
Remarkable new variety, with fully petalled flowers of claret, feathering out into a broad white edge. Like a double form of 'Spitsbergen' (it comes from the same grower!).

We always feel that tulips with such a strong presence are best used alone, or with a single colour tulip which picks up on one of their tones....

Tulipa 'Purissima Design'
'Purissima' is a tulip of huge popularity (not least for municipal bedding schemes, which may be why we have always steered clear of it!).

Attractive foliage is a huge (and rare) bonus with tulips, extending the season of interest considerably. Is proving reliably perennial...
