Liliaceae
Tulips are spring-flowering bulbs with upright stems and distinctive cup-, bowl-, goblet- or lily-shaped flowers in an extraordinary range of colours and forms. They are indispensable for borders, bedding schemes, containers and cut-flower displays. The Double Early Tulips are early-flowering bulbs with large, fully double, peony-like blooms carried on sturdy stems. Flowering in a wide range of rich colours, they provide a long-lasting display in borders, containers and spring bedding. Their weather-resistant flowers and excellent vase life also make them ideal for cutting.
