Tulip 'Klein Schoonheid' – 100 flower bulbs (bulb size 6/+)

These 100 flower bulbs of the 'Klein Schoonheid' tulip will add pink colour to your garden or patio from April through May. Tulips are the quintessential spring flowers of the Netherlands: one bulb produces one sturdy stem with a large, colourful flower. Use them in borders, planters, pots on the patio and as cut flowers in a vase. The bulb size 6/+ indicates how many centimetres the bulbs measure in circumference; a larger bulb contains more reserves for flowering.
