Tulip 'Positive Vibe' – 80 flower bulbs (bulb size 11/12)

Tulip 'Positive Vibe' blooms in mixed colours from April through May. With 80 bulbs in this pack, you can cover approximately 1 m². Tulips are the quintessential spring flowers of the Netherlands: one bulb produces one sturdy stem with a large, colourful flower. They look beautiful in borders, planters, pots on the patio and as cut flowers in a vase. Bulb size 11/12 indicates the circumference of the bulbs in centimetres; a larger bulb contains more reserves for blooming.

Planting and care
