Description

Tulip Drumline is a showy, late-season double tulip with deep red petals dramatically edged in crisp white, forming peony-like blooms that open gradually for extended seasonal impact. Reaching 45 cm in height, it commands attention in late-spring displays and is perfectly suited for luxury-themed planting, commemorative beds, and prestige civic or hotel landscaping.

Thriving in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil, Drumline is especially effective in upscale estate borders, event venues, boutique hotel forecourts, and curated public displays. Its robust blooms tolerate wind and rain, and the contrast between its red petals and white margins provides theatrical structure in raised planters, formal frontages, and transitional terrace beds. For heavier soils, incorporate grit and compost to support strong root systems.

Pair Drumline with tulips such as Ice Cream, contrast with the inky depth of Queen of Night, or plant with soft blue Blue Diamond for refined colour balance. While not nectar-rich, its voluminous petals create warm microclimates that offer refuge to early hoverflies and bees. Very lightly scented, it brings a subtle note of spring richness to areas of high footfall and contemplative garden spaces.
