Tulipa Darwin Hybrid 'Blushing Apeldoorn'

Tulip

Tulip 'Blushing Apeldoorn' is a Darwin Hybrid tulip with a soft yet radiant presence in the spring garden. Its golden-yellow petals, delicately brushed with tangerine-orange, create a warm, sunlit effect. A fine red margin adds subtle definition, enhancing the depth of color as the bloom matures.

Pre-cooled bulbs for the South must be planted immediately

Avoid These Common Pitfalls
Not sure if a bulb is viable? Look for bulbs that are firm to the touch
Bulbs hate "wet feet" - never plant in areas with poor drainage or standing water
Planting when the soil temperature is too warm is the primary cause of stunted blooms
Road salt and de-icing compounds are harmful to bulbs - avoid areas where plowed snow accumulates
Crop rotation is key - don't plant the same type of bulb in the same spot year after year to protect against Rhizoctonia
Don't plant too shallow - it's essential that bulbs are planted at least 3 times their height into the soil
Plant bulbs firmly in the soil with their pointy end up and basal plate down - not all bulbs will right themselves underground
Avoid areas that do not receive at least half a day of sun
Plant away from invasive tree and perennial root systems that can strangle bulb roots & compete for limited water and nutrition
