Our "Bloom or Bust" Promise

Double Blizz, often admired for its red and white colouring, is a bulb variety especially well suited to pots & containers.

Tulipa 'Double Blizz' is a late-spring, double tulip with a distinctly couture air—sumptuous, peony-flowered blooms in fuchsia-pink and white, with a crisp wash of green on the outer petals. Planted in drifts through borders or arranged in generous pots by the door, it brings a composed flourish just as the season turns towards summer.

With sturdy, upright stems and a refined mid-height presence, it pairs beautifully with fresh greens and soft pastels, and looks particularly assured beneath roses and shrubs where its colour lifts emerging foliage.

Why you’ll love it

  • Peony-flowered, double blooms for an opulent late-spring display
  • Striking bicolour finish of fuchsia-pink and white with green striping
  • Ideal for pots and borders, with a neat, upright habit

Where to Plant:

Tulipa 'Double Blizz' (Tulip) 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 10-15cm 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.
