Tulip 'Vendeeglobe' – 24 flower bulbs (bulb size 11/12)

These 24 'Vendeeglobe' tulip bulbs will add yellow 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. Suitable for borders, window boxes, patio pots and as cut flowers in a vase. The bulb size 11/12 indicates the circumference of the bulbs in centimetres; a larger bulb contains more energy reserves for flowering.
