Tulip - Blue Diamond - Tulipa - Rich, Lustrous Purple Blooms - Bulbs - 5 pcs

Blue Diamond tulips have a distinctive presence in spring gardens, recognised for their cool purple shades and exceptionally full flowers. This variety has long been valued for its reliable growth and ease of cultivation, making it a practical choice even for less experienced gardeners. Planted in autumn, Blue Diamond tulip bulbs produce striking, lustrous blooms each May, bringing a refined look to borders and beds.

Planting Time

For best results, plant Blue Diamond tulip bulbs from September to October. Early autumn planting ensures the bulbs develop a strong root system before winter sets in, supporting healthy growth in spring.

Planting Depth

Set bulbs at a depth of 12 cm. This provides effective protection against frost and helps the plants establish stable roots.

Spacing

Allow 12-15 cm between each bulb. This spacing supports healthy development and creates a natural, attractive display when planting in groups.

Height

When mature, Blue Diamond tulips reach 30-50 cm in height. The sturdy stems are well suited to supporting the variety’s characteristically full, heavy flowers, whether at the front or middle of a border.

Flowering Time

Blue Diamond is a late-flowering tulip, blooming in May. Its rich purple blooms provide a strong focal point during late spring, adding a sense of luxury to any garden setting. These garden bulbs are ideal for extending the colour in your outdoor space well into the season.

Hardiness & Overwintering

This variety is fully hardy and can remain in the ground after flowering. With suitable planting and soil conditions, the bulbs tolerate cold winters and do not require lifting for overwintering.

Uses

Blue Diamond tulips are suited to borders, flower beds, and containers. Their compact, abundant blooms also make them a good choice for mixed plantings, particularly alongside yellow or white hyacinths. The robust stems are ideal for cut flower arrangements, holding up well and retaining freshness. For a striking effect, group 10-15 bulbs together when planting.
