10 Bio Tulip saxatalis 5/+

Organic Tulip saxatalis is a botanical tulip with lilac to soft purple flowers and a bright yellow centre. It is ideal for naturalistic planting and rockery-style schemes. Supplied as 10 organic bulbs per pack and shipped in outers of 5, it is a strong eco-led choice for customers who want a smaller tulip that looks natural rather than formal. Tulip saxatilis is a good naturaliser, especially in free-draining ground, and can increase over time. Open flowers can provide early pollen and are often more wildlife-friendly than very double forms.

Description

Bio Tulip saxatalis is the botanical alternative to bedding tulips. It produces smaller, starry lilac-purple flowers with a bright yellow centre that looks natural in gravel gardens, rockeries, meadow edges, and informal drifts where you want spring colour that does not look overly manicured. It is particularly good threaded through low groundcover or planted in pockets among stones and free-draining soil where it can settle in and build.

Supplied as 10 organic bulbs and shipped in outers of 5, it is easy for retailers to position as a naturalising, biodiversity-friendly tulip option within an organic range. Plant in autumn in a bright position and prioritise drainage.

Unlike many show tulips, Tulip saxatilis can naturalise well in suitable conditions and may return and spread gradually.

The open flower form is more accessible and can contribute useful early-season pollen in mild spring weather.
