Tulips Princesse charmante

This tulip has leaves with brown or red spots or streaks and curly edges. It is an early and long flowering tulip. The flowers are star-shaped or cup-shaped, large, usually in warm tones. Very pretty but relatively sticky tulips, they should be planted in a well-drained area, well covered before winter and dug up annually. Tulips are planted in mid-September to early October, depending on the autumn weather. The optimum soil temperature is 7-10 C and the soil must be sufficiently moist. The planting depth and density depend on the size of the tulip bulb. As a general rule, tulips should be planted at a depth of three bulb heights, slightly shallower in heavy soils and deeper in light soils. Tulip bulbs are dug up annually. Only the small ones (if disease-free) can be dug every second year. The best time to dig tulips is when the lower leaf has not completely wilted (this will vary from tulip to tulip).

Planting location: spring and summer flowering flowers grow best in a sunny position.

Type of soil: all types of soil that are not too wet are suitable. Humus can be added if necessary.

Care: water immediately after planting and keep the soil moist during growth. Protect spring-flowering bulbs from hard frosts under a layer of peat, summer-flowering bulbs should be stored at a minimum temperature of 0 °C.

Support: support tall bulbs during growth.
