Few tulips are as instantly recognisable as Estella Rijnveld. This rare parrot tulip is admired for its bold blend of white and red, with each flower featuring dramatically fringed petals that catch the light in unexpected ways. The colours shift gently across each bloom, making every flower slightly different. Estella Rijnveld’s striking appearance is matched by its short, memorable flowering period in May, creating a vivid highlight in any spring display. Its distinctive look is rarely seen in private gardens, which only adds to its appeal for collectors and anyone seeking something unique among their garden bulbs.
Plant Estella Rijnveld bulbs in autumn, ideally between September and October. This timing allows the bulbs to establish strong roots before winter sets in.
Set the bulbs 10-12 cm deep in well-prepared soil. This depth supports healthy growth and reliable spring flowering.
Allow 12-15 cm between each bulb. Adequate spacing ensures each plant has room to develop its full decorative potential.
Estella Rijnveld typically grows to 30-45 cm tall. This versatile height suits borders, path edges, and planting beneath windows, where the flowers can be appreciated up close.
This tulip blooms in May. During this period, the garden is brightened by its white and red, deeply cut flowers, which make a strong visual impact among other spring plants.
Estella Rijnveld is hardy and does not need lifting for winter. The bulbs tolerate low temperatures well, remaining in the ground until the next season.
Ideal for borders, flower beds, and naturalistic plantings, this variety stands out in larger groups, especially along fences or under windows. The dramatic flowers are also excellent for cutting, keeping their colour and freshness in a vase for longer than many tulips. Estella Rijnveld is a popular choice for those seeking bulbs for gardens that offer something out of the ordinary.
