{"product_id":"col-bulb-tul-sug-alm-mix-30","title":"Tulip Sugar Almond Mix (Tulipa) – Pastel Spring Flowering Mix (Bag of 30 Bulbs)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSugar Almond Mix tulips bring a soft, romantic palette to the spring garden, in shades of blush pink, cream, soft lilac and pale apricot that echo classic sugar almond sweets. You receive 30 dry bulbs in a bag, ready to plant. They are not growing plants. The photos show the flowers in bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach bag holds 30 tulip bulbs (Tulipa) for a generous, multi-toned display in spring. The mixed selection gives a layered, naturalistic look, with blooms opening in harmonious waves through the season. As with any mixed bulb collection, the exact proportion of each shade may vary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTulips suit borders, raised beds, patio containers and cutting gardens, and they are easy for beginners and experienced gardeners alike. Plant them in autumn in a sunny spot with free-draining soil, because the bulbs rot in waterlogged ground. In pots, use good quality, free-draining compost and make sure the container has drainage holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter flowering, leave the foliage to die back naturally so the bulb can store energy. Most modern tulip hybrids flower best in their first spring and then tend to dwindle in British gardens, so many gardeners replant fresh bulbs each autumn or lift the bulbs once the foliage has died down and store them somewhere cool and dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBulbs are harmful if eaten. Keep away from children and pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tulip, Sugar Almond Mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tulipa spp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 40-55cm (variety dependent within the mix)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, single stemmed, with cup-shaped blooms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Borders, beds, patio containers, cut flower gardens, mixed planting schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late winter to late spring (February to May)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixed pastels: blush pink, cream, lilac and pale apricot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn (September to November), ideally November once the soil has cooled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 10-15cm deep, pointed end upwards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, fertile soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very hardy, fine in the ground over a British winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deciduous spring-flowering bulb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Verdant Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68152661573852,"sku":"COL-BULB-TUL-SUG-ALM-MIX-30","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/2455\/8300\/files\/file_52535346-9f76-4735-8140-66ab4be21ac0.png?v=1794155103","url":"https:\/\/www.verdant-living.co.uk\/products\/col-bulb-tul-sug-alm-mix-30","provider":"Verdant Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
