Tulip 'Doubles Collection'

Arguably the most indulgent of tulips, these double varieties feature multiple layers of silky petals composed into a bowl-shaped, peony-like flower. Late flowering, they are perfect for extending your tulip display into May, maintaining colour in the garden right up until the first summer perennials spring into life. Tulip ‘Doubles Collection’ includes two strikingly unusual varieties – the enormous flowers of coppery ‘Callahan’ and the streaky purple ‘Dancing Passion’.

Tulip ‘Doubles Collection’ contains 30 bulbs, 5 of each of the following varieties: 

• Tulip ‘Bendigo’ – Deep red with fringed petals. Height: 40-50cm (16-20in). Spread: 10cm (4in).
