Description
Tulip Flaming Prince is a stately Triumph tulip that brings deep regal tones to spring schemes with its velvety purple petals and sharp white basal flare. Each bloom emerges with a rich, saturated colour that holds well through Irish April weather, making it a standout for designers needing reliable contrast in structured, public-facing beds. The flower sits atop a strong 35 cm stem and maintains an upright, symmetrical profile even in open or breezy conditions.
Perfectly suited for estate borders, entrance plantings, commercial beds, and public parkland schemes where high-impact colour and structure are required. Flaming Prince also performs well in larger pots and planters, especially when combined with tulips in white, soft pink, or pale lilac to create a balanced spring composition.
While its form isn’t a prime nectar source, its open flower can offer occasional benefit to bees. For biodiversity balance, combine with nectar-rich underplanting such as Muscari armeniacum or Allium Graceful Beauty. Its colour makes it particularly valuable in design schemes aiming for royal tones, contrast planting, or heritage-style compositions with formal rhythm.
