Wonderful in early summer if you can get shafts of light to pick out the rich gold, verdigris and crimson colours. They will naturalise in many situations, either in shade or sun, but resent disturbance as young plants. They are an enigmatic and emblematic tulip, but we always seem to be short of them so do order early. They flower from surprisingly small bulbs.
Tulipa sprengeri has been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit because it has proved to be reliable in appropriate conditions and a good performing plant.
Tulipa sprengeri bulbs should be planted 4" (10cm) deep and 3" (8cm) apart, in good soil in part shade where they will not be disturbed and where seedlings may settle and thrive unmolested.
