Tulip Ballerina Bulbs produce elegant lily-flowered blooms in glowing orange, complemented by a sweet, delicate fragrance. Their slender reflexed petals bring movement and warmth to late-spring planting.

Supplied as a pack of 15 bulbs, plants reach around 60cm (2ft) and flower from April to May. They are excellent for borders, patio containers and cutting. Plant from October to December in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade.

Bulb size: 12+
Bulb sizes are measured by circumference in centimetres. A 12+ bulb measures at least 12cm around. Larger bulbs generally contain more stored energy, helping to support strong growth and an impressive flowering display.

About our Bulbs
We work very closely with our growers to ensure we offer the very best, top sized bulbs which will provide you with a glorious autumn show. All of the bulbs we offer have been trialled and tested, either on our own trials ground, here in Suffolk, or on those of our growers, who we work with to ensure we offer the best range for British gardens.
