Tulips - Double Early
With their early flowering and neat stature, the double early tulips are absolutely ideal for front of borders or in containers, teamed with lower growing plants. Whilst 'Peach Blossom' is an established favourite, our other offerings are new or hard-to-find varieties.
Tulipa Alison Bradley
New for 2024
We loved this so much when trialling it here in the garden that we had to add it to our ramge for this year. The peony shaped flowers are of richest cassis and , at just 12" (30cm), the perfect height for containers or front of border.

Tulipa 'Copper Image'
Warm copper-rose tones and fully double blooms make for a wonderful double early flowering tulip. It is also pictured here with 'Amazing Grace', which makes a great planting partner, flowering at the same time and height. This year, we also tried it in terracotta pots with the taller 'Slawa', which has the same copper-rose tone at the edges of its darker blooms - a fantastic combination! Flowering...

Tulipa 'Foxtrot'
We introduced this variety to the UK quite a few years ago, after being bowled over by it at Keukenhof. We subsequently supplied bulbs to Gardening 'Which' for their bulb trials, where it won a 'Best Buy' award.The double flowers are in warm tones of pink/rose/white and are held up beautifully on strong stems. It is a little taller than most tulips in this group. Flowering in April at 16" (40cm)

Tulipa 'Palmyra'
Tones of ruby red and purple-black merge in a complex melange of rich colour in this fascinating variety. It rather wonderfully fills the gap for a dark tulip a little earlier in the season and is short enough to work well in containers. Flowering from mid-April at 12-14" (30-32.5cm).
