Name of tulip variety: Queen of the Night
Queen of Night is a distinctive tulip, bearing deep maroon, almost black flowers, making it quite the darkest of any tulip. It’s well-suited tor growing among light-coloured tulips in the border or container, and makes a striking cut flower.
Soil/Position
Tulips will grow in a wide range of soils provided there is good drainage. They like sunshine but the flowers will last longer in partial shade.
Application
Ideal for beds, borders and containers. Remove flower heads as they begin to fade. Avoid planting repeatedly in exactly the same location.
Cultivation
Best lifted when the leaves fade. Clean and store until autumn when they can be replanted. Do not keep the small off-shoots as they will not flower.
Expert’s Tip
Try multi level planting in pots with other bulbs such as daffodils and crocus.
