The Diamond Jubilee tulip delights even the most picky gardeners. It gives us a combination of snow white with a bright pink note of the thin petal edges. The overall appearance of this tulip is simply breath-taking. Planted in larger groups that opens flowers in April already, it constitutes a stunning garden decoration. It is well suited for bouquets and interior arrangements. It usually grows about 45 centimetres tall what allows you to grow it in planters and pots. Diamond Jubilee offers a magnificent colour combination that is worth growing in every garden.

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.
