Tulip Don Quichotte
WARNING! This tulip will conquer your garden! As you might already know, the tulip got its name after the main character from the book “The Ingenious Nobleman Sir Quixote of La Mancha” by Cervantes. Don Quichotte has the prettiest fuchsia pink colour there is! If the bulb is well protected from a severe frost, it can bloom again in many years to follow. With its proud height (50 cm), Don Quichotte looks incredible as a cut flower or in an arrangement.
Originally, Don Quichotte belongs to the Triumph tulip group, which is a crossbreed between early and late varieties, and are well-known for their sturdy stems and fantastic colour combinations. The flowers bloom in the mid-late spring and are suitable for every park and garden. Tulip Don Quichotte will never disappoint you!
