Tulip Estella Rijnveld Parrot Bulbs bring a dramatic touch to any garden with their striking, large blooms. The flower petals start as creamy-primrose and gradually fade to white, streaked with vivid red flames and occasionally marked with a streak of green as they mature. These tulips boast a unique, ruffled appearance, adding texture and a splash of colour to borders, beds, and containers. Their flamboyant design makes them perfect for creating eye-catching focal points in formal gardens or adding a touch of elegance to mixed flower beds. Ideal for cutting, these tulips also make a stunning addition to indoor floral arrangements.
Planting instructions
Plant the bulbs in well-draining soil, in a sunny or partially shaded spot. Ensure they are protected from strong winds to prevent damage to their delicate petals. Plant the bulbs 10-15 cm deep in the soil, with the pointed end facing upwards for optimal growth. Space the bulbs approximately 10-15 cm apart to allow enough room for their large blooms to fully develop.
Growing Requirements
Pests

soil
Tulips thrive in well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Adding compost can improve soil structure and fertility.

watering
Water the bulbs well after planting and keep the soil moderately moist throughout the growing season, but avoid waterlogging.
how to harvest
