Tulipa Toronto

Low-growing and disarmingly cheerful, Toronto belongs to that group of tulips that feel like finding something precious close to the ground — its delicate blush blooms open wide in the sun like small stars waiting to be noticed. Its season comes in April to June, and what it lacks in height it more than makes up for in charm. In pots or rockeries, massed at the front of borders — wherever it is placed, it earns its keep completely. Dutch-grown and hand-selected for size and vigour, Toronto arrives ready to perform. Grown in the bulb fields of the Netherlands, where the craft of bulb growing has been perfected over centuries.
