Tulip 'Pink-Red' – 40 flower bulbs (bulb size 10/12)

Tulip 'Pink-Red' blooms in pink and red from March through April. With 40 bulbs in this package, you can fill a group of approximately 60 × 60 cm. Tulips are the quintessential spring flowers of the Netherlands: one bulb produces one sturdy stem with a large, colorful flower. Use them in borders, flower boxes, pots on the patio, and as cut flowers in the vase. Bulb size 10/12 indicates how many centimeters the bulbs measure in circumference; a larger bulb contains more reserves for blooming.
