Why We Love It

This Tulip & Allium Collection brings together two garden favourites in a harmonious planting scheme. The tulips provide early and mid-spring colour, while the tall, spherical blooms of the alliums rise elegantly above them later in the season, extending the display well into early summer.

Not only does this collection add beauty outdoors, but it’s also perfect for cut flowers, tulips bring soft romance to arrangements, while the alliums add sculptural drama. Packaged in a stylish, recyclable kraft paper gift bag, it also makes a thoughtful present for gardeners and flower-lovers alike.
