    • Why we like this plant

      Tulip 'Dwarf Praestans' is beloved for its cheerful, vivid blooms that appear early in the season, signalling the first whispers of spring. Its diminutive size lends a delicate note to any garden setting, while the warm orange-red petals bring an uplifting glow. This tulip pairs wonderfully with other early bulbs such as snowdrops and crocuses, making it a delightful addition to naturalistic and cottage-style plantings.

    Planting guide

    Plant bulbs in autumn, 10 to 12 cm deep and 8 to 10 cm apart, in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun or light shade.

    Care tips

    Deadhead after flowering and allow the foliage to die back naturally to feed the bulb. 'Dwarf Praestans' prefers well-drained soils and can reliably return for several seasons. Lift bulbs if planted in heavy or damp ground.
