Tulip Carnaval de Nice

Tulip Carnaval de Nice

Tulip Carnaval de Nice is a striking peony-style tulip producing full white flowers marked with bold red flames and streaks, giving late spring displays a festive, high-contrast finish with strong close-view impact. Creates stunning displays planted in hotel gardens, estate borders, civic planters, public garden displays, courtyard containers and premium commercial landscapes or where late spring timing, full peony-style flowers, red-and-white contrast and premium public-facing display value are required.

Description

Tulip Carnaval de Nice is a double late, decorative tulip planted where the display needs contrast, fullness and a strong sense of occasion. It gives a different effect from soft pink or plain white double tulips, using red flame markings over white petals to create a lively, patterned flower with a formal peony-like shape. The flowers are fully double, creamy white to white, with red or raspberry-red flames running through the petals.

Carnaval de Nice is best used where the flower pattern can be seen properly. It suits hotel entrances, estate borders, civic planters, public garden beds, wedding venue displays, courtyard containers, commercial frontages and premium seasonal planting. The red-and-white colouring gives clear impact from a distance, while the full double flower form rewards close viewing. Because double late tulips have large, full flowers, Carnaval de Nice is best placed in managed beds, sheltered borders and planters rather than exposed verge schemes.

Carnaval de Nice combines well with plain white tulips, dark red tulips, burgundy tulips, blue muscari, cream narcissus, late alliums and silver foliage.
