Introducing the Gwen Tulip in our GIGA Pack of 250 bulbs!

The Gwen Tulip, with its stunning white petals adorned with a lavender blue edge, is a sight to behold. As the flower ages, its range of colors gradually unfolds, creating a delicate yet striking two-tone effect. These exquisite flowers gracefully stand atop sturdy, green stems that reach a height of 45 cm.

Gwen Tulip is the perfect choice for enhancing the borders of your flower beds or brightening up containers on balconies and patios. For a captivating color contrast, consider planting it alongside a pure purple variety like Attila. The Gwen variety, a part of the Triumph tulip family, enjoys unparalleled popularity due to its traditional flower shape and robust stems that withstand adverse weather conditions. These tulips also make long-lasting cut flowers, adding a touch of elegance to your floral arrangements.

Cultivating tulips is relatively low-maintenance. These resilient flowers don't demand excessive attention, but understanding their ideal growing conditions is key to their success. Tulips thrive in well-drained, moderately light soil with a clay-sandy structure, rich in nutrients and organic matter. Avoid planting bulbs in overly wet, acidic, heavy, or excessively dry areas. While tulips prefer full sun, they can tolerate a few hours of shade. Preparing the planting site in advance is advisable, ensuring the soil is loosened, weed-free, and free of large stones. Incorporating well-shredded compost at planting provides an excellent start, and adding sand can improve soil texture. Tulips generally do not require annual digging; they can remain undisturbed for several years, with strengthening and dividing the bulbs every 3-4 seasons for optimal results.

Tulip bulbs should be planted in the autumn months of September and October. The recommended planting depth is twice the height of the bulb, with spacing depending on the desired visual impact, typically averaging 15-20 × 15-20 cm.

This set includes 250 Gwen Tulip bulbs, and each label provides essential information about the plant and its cultivation guidelines.
