Spring Green, often admired for its white with green colouring, is a bulb variety especially well suited to pots & containers.

Tulipa 'Spring Green' is a thoroughly refined spring tulip, prized for creamy-white petals delicately brushed and feathered with fresh green. The effect is understated yet unmistakable—perfect for bringing a modern, tailored note to borders and pots, and equally elegant when cut for the house.

Plant in autumn and allow the bulbs to settle over winter; come April and May, slender stems carry poised, goblet-shaped blooms that sit beautifully among soft whites, green-tinted flowers and cool pastels.

Where to Plant:

Tulipa 'Spring Green' needs full-sun, partial sun and a warm, sheltered position for the best flowering. Plant into fertile, humus-rich soil that drains well, and choose a spot protected from strong winds, especially for taller varieties.

How to Plant:

Plant bulb from September to December once conditions are suitable. Set them at the correct depth for the variety, spacing 10–12cm apart where relevant, then firm in gently and water well after planting.

Aftercare:

Water regularly in dry weather and feed every two to three weeks once buds appear. Stake taller stems early and deadhead to keep plants flowering. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally before lifting or protecting bulb according to local conditions.

The bulbs arrived beautifully packaged and you could just tell they were excellent quality. We had the most wonderful display of daffodils this spring on our patio. Simply stunning. Will definitely be ordering again

I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
