Tulipa Lilac Frizzle

The fringed edge of Lilac Frizzle catches light in a way that solid-petalled tulips simply cannot. Each soft powdery lilac petal ends in a delicate crystal-like fringe, like the finest handmade lace laid along the rim of a flower. In April to June it is at its most beautiful, the fringed edges freshest and most defined. It suits both formal borders and relaxed cottage-garden planting — versatile in a way that many specialist tulips are not. On still mornings in April to June, its fragrance carries across the garden — an invisible quality that makes this variety something to seek out and remember. Every bulb is hand-selected from BLOM's Dutch growers — chosen for size, firmness and the promise of the bloom to come. A small act of trust with a beautiful, reliable reward.
