Tulip Cummins is very loved amongst flower enthusiasts! This spectacular tulip has violet tint with gorgeous fringed white edges. Tulip Cummins belongs to the Crispa or Fringed tulip group and looks absolutely fabulous! This tulip type grows more and more popular in the Netherlands. With its sturdy and long stem (50-55 cm), it’s perfect for cut flower use or in an arrangement and looks fantastic with other purple and white flowers. Because it’s a crossmix between early and late varieties, tulip Cummins blooms in mid-late spring and is well known for being one of the most long-lasting varieties.

Other information

  • First loosen the soil well where the flower bulbs will be planted. Then the soil is easier to work with.
  • Dig a hole and make sure it is 2 to 3 times as deep as the height of the tulip bulbs.
  • For the distance between the bulbs, make sure it is 2 times the diameter of the bulbs.
  • Plant the flower bulbs in the hole with the pointed side facing up or with the root base facing down.
  • Cover the tulip bulbs with soil and water them well.

Pre-orders can be placed up to the first of August, which will be shipped in the first half of September and delivered latest by October.
