Tulip Early Harvest
Every year arrives a very welcomed guest in our assortment – Tulip Early Harvest. It’s a glowing apricot-red flower with orange-yellow edges. This tulip belongs to the Kaufmanniana group and blooms in March-April. The flowers are relatively short (25 cm) and they match very well with other short bloomers like crocuses. Because of its unique petals that can go completely open (on a sunny day), the tulip is often called – a Waterlily tulip. Shorter tulips are perfect for borders and perimeters of the gardens and parks, and they look blissful in groups if planted in large pots and containers. This tulip is very easy to maintain, and it can naturalize on its own in your garden and produce more flowers over the years.

- 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.
