Tulip Batalinii Bright Gem
Tulip Batalinii Bright Gem originates from Asia, where it was discovered in the wild. Its uniquely shaped blooms start off as a creamy yellow and mature into a pretty shade of bronze.
Excellent for naturalizing, Batalinii Bright Gem thrives well in a sunny location. Its height is 4 inches and it blooms at the end of April. We ship Top-Size Bulbs of 6/8 cm.
Botanical tulips open early, flower beautifully and have many great characteristics. Botanical tulips have a natural look. They stay nice and close to the ground, and they seem to be in flower as soon as they emerge from the soil. Their bright colors make them real eye-catchers in early spring. The striped leaves of many varieties make them even more appealing. And another important thing: these ‘wild’ tulips won’t be bothered by wind and weather.
In early spring, when your garden, terrace or balcony has little to offer in the way of visual interest, Botanical tulips brighten things up straightaway. These are real early birds: they bloom before any other tulips. They catch the eye not only because of their extra early flowering but also because of their inflorescence and cheery range of colors. In addition, the graceful way the flowers open, and their pretty foliage make them attractive before, during and after flowering. In other words, Botanical tulips are simply bursting with excellent characteristics.
Many Botanical tulips can simply be left to naturalize. This means that they don’t have to be lifted from the ground every year. If you would rather take them out, however, wait until June when the foliage will have withered. Botanical tulips prefer a nice and sunny spot. In October/November, plant them with their ‘noses’ pointing upward and cover with 2,5 to 3 inches of soil.
