Product Description
Tulip Marilyn is as beautiful and stylish as its namesake. A contrast of pure white and cherry-red, coupled with the exceptional elegance of lily-flowered varieties. Tulip Marilyn grows up to 55cm; its tall stems can look delicate but are deceivingly sturdy. Still, it is always recommended to plant in a sheltered location to protect from wind damage.

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.
