Tulip Queensland -MASTER-

Description

Exceptionally pretty and long-lasting, Tulip ‘Queensland’ is a fabulous double flowering tulip variety full of reddish-pink ruffled flowers with finely incised white edges atop broad lance-shaped leaves. Blooming in mid-late spring, this spectacular member of the Fringed Tulips group enjoys a long stem and will look ravishing in a vase!

Plant bulbs in well dug soil about 8-10cm deep and approx 15cm apart. It is often beneficial to use a little bonemeal or super phosphate mixed in with the soil. Tulips delight during their growth in a sunny location.

After the tulips have bloomed and when leaves fade and turn brown the bulbs can be lifted, dried, cleaned and stored in a cool place until planting time. Tulips should not be grown in the same soil for several years, so replace with fresh soil every other year.
