Product Description
Peppermint Stick is a beautiful small red and white Tulip which is eye-catching in any garden. As the season progresses the flowers slowly open to produce colourful star shapes and then almost a complete white star when they are fully open. Their compact nature make them ideal for low borders, rockeries or patio containers. The stunning colour of this unique Tulip also makes them perfect as part of a cut-flower display to be enjoyed within the home.

Growing at a glance…
Tulip bulbs should be planted in autumn, before any frost. Find an area of soil that is well-drained and moist and plant your bulbs at twice their depth and spaced apart by 10-15cm. Ensure they are properly covered, you should not be able to see them on the surface of the soil. Position in an area that you know receives plenty of sunlight but is also sheltered from harsh winds. Deadhead the flowers once they wilt, encouraging a healthier plant.
