Tulip Formosa is an elegant late tulip that produces light yellow flowers strongly flamed with green, giving a fresh, natural-looking display with a softer character than standard bright yellow tulips. It is supplied for landscapers, estate gardeners, councils, parks departments, hotels, contractors and professional horticultural customers as it is well suited to professional planting where late colour, softer yellow tones and a more natural Viridiflora finish are required.
Viridiflora Tulip Formosa is a strong option customers who want a yellow tulip with more subtlety and plant detail than a plain bedding variety. The flowers are light yellow with pointed petals marked by strong green flames. This green-on-yellow effect gives Formosa a fresh, botanical appearance, sitting well in planting schemes that need warmth without looking too harsh.
Tulip Formosa is best used where a refined yellow tulip is more appropriate than a bold primary-colour block. It works well in estate borders, hotel gardens, public garden entrances, civic planters, courtyard containers, business frontages and mixed bulb displays. The green markings help it sit naturally with foliage, grasses, late narcissus, muscari, alliums and other Viridiflora tulips. Formosa is considered to be a fragrant tulip, blooming in late spring, with long-lasting flowers that can hold for up to three weeks making it great value for long lasting displays.
Formosa is best positioned in cared-for beds, planters and mixed schemes where the green flame markings can be appreciated.
