Description
With its sunshine yellow petals streaked with flame-like red markings, this many-petalled double early tulip is an absolute show stopper. You’ll get as many as three blooms from every bulb you plant, and the sturdy stems ensure that a few spring showers won’t flatten your flower-bed.
Combine Tulip Monsella™ with other double early tulips, or plant them en masse for a breath-taking floral display. Its compact flower stems make this variety perfect for pots, and it lasts well in the vase, adding zest to any flower arrangement. Cheerful tulips are just what you need after a colour-starved winter, so don’t forget to plant your double early Monsella™ tulips this autumn.
