Description

Tulip Heartbreaker® is a vibrant Triumph tulip whose cherry-red petals create a crisp, bold effect that makes it an instant focal point in mid-spring beds. Its upright, classically shaped blooms hold their colour well, even in unpredictable spring weather, and stand at around 35–45 cm on strong stems that withstand wind and rain. Thriving in full sun and moderately fertile, free-draining soils, this variety is as reliable as it is striking, delivering colour precision to both formal and informal schemes.

Perfect for municipal bedding schemes, estate driveways, formal entrance plantings, and high-visibility public borders, Heartbreaker® brings structure and vibrancy to a wide range of landscape contexts. It partners superbly with the near-black Tulip Queen of Night for a dramatic, moody edge, while the frosted blue blooms of Muscari Baby’s Breath offer a softer, romantic underplanting that works beautifully in cottage garden borders and courtyard displays. For extended seasonal performance and added textural interest, it combines beautifully with Allium Globemaster or the delicate starbursts of Allium christophii, both of which take over as the tulip season fades. Planting Heartbreaker® in these combinations ensures a layered, designer-quality display that blends bold impact with sustained seasonal interest from April into early summer.
