Why we like this plant
Tulip 'Orca' bursts into bloom with a vitality that is hard to ignore. The vivid orange petals, touched by warm undertones and a gentle ripple along their edges, bring movement and warmth to the garden. Whether grown en masse for dramatic impact or combined with deep purples and creams for contrast, 'Orca' brings the boldness and joy that define spring at its fullest.
Planting guide
Plant bulbs in autumn, 15 cm deep and 10 to 12 cm apart, in rich, well-drained soil with full sun exposure.
Care tips
Deadhead once blooms fade and allow the foliage to die back naturally. In well-drained soil, bulbs may flower again the following spring. In damp areas, lift and store bulbs after the leaves have withered.
