25 Tulip pulchella Persian Pearl 6/+

Tulip pulchella Persian Pearl is a botanical tulip with starry magenta to purple-pink flowers and a bright yellow centre, making it ideal for naturalistic planting. Supplied as a 25-bulb pack and shipped in outers of 5. Persian Pearl is perfect for gravel gardens, rockery pockets and drift-style schemes. It is a good naturaliser in suitable free-draining ground and is more pollinator-friendly than many show tulips because the open flower form is accessible.

Description

Tulip pulchella Persian Pearl is the species-style alternative to formal bedding tulips. It produces smaller, star-shaped flowers in rich magenta to purple-pink tones, opening wide to reveal a bright yellow eye that glows in sunshine. This is the kind of tulip that looks natural threaded through gravel, between stones, along sunny banks and at the edges of paths where the planting is meant to feel informal rather than manicured.

Supplied as a 25-bulb pack in outers of 5, it suits retailers targeting naturalistic and biodiversity-led customers because the pack size supports meaningful drift planting.

Unlike many bedding tulips, Persian Pearl can naturalise in suitable conditions, returning and gradually increasing when left undisturbed in free-draining ground.

Persian Pearl has an open, accessible flower form can contribute useful early-season pollen in mild spring weather.
