Tulip - Lefeber's Memory - Tulipa - Classic and elegant variety - Bulbs - 5 pcs

The vivid red blooms of Tulipa Lefeber's Memory embody refined garden style. Their rich hue, softened by a gentle satin sheen, brings poise and clarity to early spring borders. The classic, large, cup-shaped flower held on a firm, upright stem adds structure and balance to planting schemes. The slightly rounded petals emphasise the traditional character of this single late variety. It performs beautifully in both formal layouts and more naturalistic plantings, where it provides a strong, dynamic burst of colour. Its durable stems and elegant form also make it an excellent choice for cut flowers.

Planting time

Plant Lefeber's Memory bulbs in autumn, from October to November. This timing allows the bulbs to establish well before winter and ensures a strong start in spring.

Planting depth

The recommended planting depth is about 10-12 cm, which helps the bulbs overwinter safely and supports even growth and good stability.

Spacing

Bulbs should be placed around 10 cm apart, giving each plant enough space to develop fully and flower attractively. This creates a dense but well-balanced display.

Height

Lefeber's Memory reaches around 40 cm. Its sturdy stems keep the plant steady even in windy weather, making it suitable for both beds and vases.

Flowering period

Flowering occurs in April and May, offering bold colour at a time when gardens benefit from fresh, vibrant highlights after winter.

Wintering

This variety tolerates cold conditions well and does not need to be lifted after the season. Left in the ground, it flowers reliably each year.

Site and soil requirements

For best results, plant Lefeber's Memory in sunny or lightly shaded positions. It prefers fertile, well-drained, moderately moist soil. Thanks to its strong cold tolerance and robust bulbs, it can bloom dependably each year without the need for lifting.

Use

Lefeber's Memory suits both formal, symmetrical plantings and relaxed, naturalistic garden arrangements. Its intense red flowers draw immediate attention, making it ideal for borders, grouped plantings and prominent garden areas. With long-lasting stems and a classic flower form, it is also an excellent option for cut displays, bringing elegance and depth of colour to bouquets and vases.
