Tulipa 'Copper Image' (Tulip) – Double Late Spring Flowering Tulip (Bag of 15 Bulbs)

You get 15 dry bulbs in a bag, ready to plant. They are not growing plants. The photos show the flowers in bloom.

Tulip 'Copper Image' (Tulipa) is a double late tulip with large, peony-like blooms in rich shades of copper, orange and soft apricot. Each flower head is densely packed with silky petals that catch the light, making it a showstopper in borders, beds and containers alike.

It is a favourite for its exceptional vase life and long-lasting blooms, so it is a good choice for cutting as well as for the garden. Plant it in generous clusters in borders, or in pots on a patio or doorstep. It flowers towards the end of the tulip season, which makes it a good companion for other mid-season spring bulbs and perennials.

These are top-size bulbs, which help strong establishment and vigorous flowering. Plant in autumn with the pointed end upwards, at about three times the bulb's height, and choose a spot with good drainage because tulips dislike waterlogged soil. Plant in groups of 5 or more for the most impactful display. After flowering, let the foliage die back naturally to feed the bulb. In containers, use a free-draining compost and make sure the pots have drainage holes.

Bulbs are harmful if eaten. Keep away from children and pets.
