Description
Tulip Green Power is an extraordinary Triumph tulip that brings a bold and unconventional injection of green to late-spring planting schemes. Its upright, tightly packed blooms are a vibrant, leaf-green, sometimes touched with lighter chartreuse tones toward the petal tips. The unusual solid-green colouring adds a sculptural, modernist element to tulip displays and blends seamlessly into planting schemes that prioritise texture, form, and contrast over traditional floral tones.
Reaching 45–50 cm in height, Green Power thrives in full sun and moderately fertile, free-draining soils. It performs best in loams or sandy loams that retain some moisture during spring but do not become waterlogged. The sturdy stems and long bloom life make it suitable for public landscapes, urban beds, and commercial forecourts where durability and impact are essential. Its striking green colour pairs particularly well with pure whites, deep purples, and soft pinks in layered planting designs.
While Triumph tulips are not the highest nectar providers, Green Power has a relatively open flower form for its class, offering some accessibility to late-emerging bees and hoverflies on warm days. For biodiversity-focused designs, interplant with nectar-rich late bulbs such as alliums, Camassia, or companion perennials to extend forage availability.
Green Power is a must-have for garden designers seeking to break from convention — perfect for contemporary landscapes, architectural planting, and high-end floral arrangements where its unique colour reads as living sculpture.
