Description

Large, early, and proud. Red-yellow combination already shining in March before anything else. Like an emperor announcing the spring.

Albert Heijn belongs to the Fosterianas, also called Emperor tulips. That is the royal class of early, large blooms. This cultivar stands out in size and reliability. 35 to 45 centimetres tall, strong stem, red-yellow colour that shifts as it matures. Blooms from March to May, scented and an excellent cut flower. Plant in full sun to part shade, in good soil with drainage. She grows vigorously in open spots and borders alongside low-growing plants. Bees and butterflies adore her.

The Emperor. Early, large, and undoubtedly the season's leader.

The bulbs come from the Dutch bulb fields. Hand selected for quality and size, and delivered at the right planting time. 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.

About this tulip

What makes this tulip special.

Tulipa Albert Heijn

Snoeproze met lavendelzweem

De grote kelkvormige bloem is zacht snoeproze met een lavendelblauwe zweem erdoorheen; een tint die zeldzaam is onder de keizertulpen.

Vroeg op het toneel

Hij hoort bij de vroege keizertulpen en staat er al als de rest van de border nog moet beginnen.

Korte, stoere steel

De steel blijft kort en gedrongen, waardoor de forse bloem ook op een open plek keurig rechtop blijft.

Good for bees and butterflies

Full of nectar and pollen, so bees and butterflies find your garden effortlessly.

Cut for the vase

Cut a few stems and bring the garden indoors for your own bouquet on the table.

Comes back every year

Once planted it spreads on its own and comes back stronger year after year.

Long lasting in the vase

Good to know

Questions about this tulip.

Plant this tulip in Jan, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec. As long as the ground is not frozen, there is still time.
Rule of thumb: plant a bulb two to three times as deep as the bulb is tall. The exact depth and spacing for this variety are on the planting card attached to the bag and in the planting guide we send along.
Fully grown, this tulip reaches about 35-45 cm. Useful to know for the order in your border: low at the front, tall at the back.
Yes, but not every tulip equally strongly. Botanical tulips and Darwin hybrids come back for years; large-flowered tulips are at their best in the first year.
We offer 100% Bloeigarantie. Send us a message and we will send you new bulbs, or refund you in full.
Cool, dry and dark, in the opened bag so they can breathe. Do plant them as soon as possible, because bulbs are not a storage product.
