Description
Gervase is rose and white marbled with streaks of shocking pink. Gracefully curved petals, striking red stamens. No two flowers are drawn the same: every bulb is a unique artwork.
Dutch breeder Ton Peter van Nieuwkerk created Gervase. The name comes from a compliment about his 'magical touch'. The flower is elegant, not exaggerated in size, but full of character. Usually one bulb produces multiple stems. Six to eight weeks after potting you see the first bloom. You place it half above the soil in a warm, light spot. Gervase deserves a central place on your windowsill.
The Artist. Hand-painted rose and white flowers, no two the same.
The bulbs come from the Dutch bulb fields. Hand selected for quality and size, and delivered ready to plant indoors. A larger bulb holds more food, and you see that in the flower: more blooms, and fuller.
We offer our 100% Bloeigarantie. If nothing comes up, send us a message. You will get new bulbs, or your money back.
