Tulip Merry Christmas
OUT OF STOCK
The vivid colour and dark foliage of this variety make it really stand out in the garden. Crimson red flowers are beautiful on strong stems from late April and give this variety its season name. This single early Tulip is long lasting and will perform best in a sunny location in well-drained, fertile soil. We recommend planting beside contrasting shades such as Diana or Yokohama, or choosing your favourite red varieties and creating a block colour border. Plant in your border, or in pots for patio colour. This variety reaches a height of up to 40cm. 11/12cm bulbs supplied.

Soil Type
Well drained garden soil |
Plant bulbs in well dug soil about 8-10cm deep and approx 15cm apart. It is often beneficial to use a little bonemeal or super phosphate mixed in with the soil. Tulips delight during their growth in a sunny location.
After the tulips have bloomed and when leaves fade and turn brown the bulbs can be lifted, dried, cleaned and stored in a cool place until planting time. Tulips should not be grown in the same soil for several years, so replace with fresh soil every other year.
