The Apricot Foxx tulip is a unique variety of the Triumph group. Flowers of this variety take on a subtle apricot colour with a touch of salmon-pink. Its colours may change in course of time. They are more intensive on colder days and become more delicate when it gets warmer.  This spectacular tulip is ideal for growing of borders and lawns. It creates wonderful combinations with daffodils and other bulbaceous flowers. This variety is recommended for cut flower too. It grows about 50 centimetres tall.

Tulips prefer sunny situation or only partial shade. It is worth planning and setting up a tulip flower bed at a frequently visited place. We recommend planting those magnificent flowers next to driveways, a path leading to the house, or in a large planter at the front door.

Tulip bulbs should be planted in autumn. September and October is the optimal time for this activity as the bulbs need time to take root before the winter. Choose light, sandy-clay, loosened soil for tulip cultures. Adding a dab of premium quality soil or compost to the holes is highly recommended. Tulips are rather tolerant when it comes to the site selection. The only thing they do not like is excess moisture in the soil that often leads to diseases.

Plant them between eight and fifteen centimetres deep. Tulip, as species, tolerates gardener's lack of experience, small variations to the planting depth are acceptable. It is recommended to keep the bulbs ten to fifteen centimetres apart. If possible, tulips should be planted in groups of five to ten bulbs or even larger patches that can count up to several dozen of bulbs. It is recommended to dig out the bulbs at the end of June or beginning of July and plant them at some other site in autumn.
