Product Description
Tulip Pinocchio is an eccentric Greigii tulip that produces a beautiful blend of red and white blooms. Its deep scarlet flowers have an ivory white border which accentuates both colours. Tulip Pinocchio's short habit means that they grow to just 20cm, making them perfect for the front of the border and patio displays. Flowers from March to April. 10-11cm bulbs supplied.

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.
