Grown for the cut flower trade, this triumph tulip produces its soft lilac flowers on sturdy stems, so that means it can cope better than most in poor weather conditions - as well as look great after being cut for the vase. It's also an easy colour to mix with white, pastels and stronger pinks and purples. - Garden care: In September to December plant bulbs 15-20cm deep and 10-15cm apart in fertile, well-drained soil. Alternatively, allow 7-9 bulbs per 30cm sq. After flowering deadhead and apply a balanced liquid fertiliser each week for the first month. Once the foliage has died down naturally lift the bulbs and store in a cool greenhouse.
