{"product_id":"tulpenbollen-prince-mix","title":"Tulip bulbs Prince mix","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Tulip bulbs Prince mix are bulbs of early tulips in a blend of soft pastel shades and fiery, vivid colours. The flowers sit on sturdy stems of around 30 to 40 centimetres. Because they stay compact, they remain nicely upright even in changeable spring weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bulbs are size 11\/16 and each produce one flower. The mix suits borders, flower beds, pots and planters, and also makes a good cut flower. With 40 bulbs you fill one large pot or two smaller ones, with 80 bulbs a generous spot in the border. With 160 or 320 bulbs you can plant a whole bed or a strip in the lawn; allow 50 to 70 bulbs per square metre.

The bulbs will then still form roots before winter without sprouting too early. As long as the ground is not frozen, you can plant until December. The bulbs need the winter cold to flower in March and April, so do not plant them in spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen do the Tulip bulbs Prince mix flower?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Tulip bulbs Prince mix flower early in the tulip season, from March into April. Each flower stays beautiful for about two weeks. In a pot in a warm spot they often flower a week earlier, after a cold spring a little later. These tulips can naturalise in grass: if you plant them in a strip of lawn that you only mow once the foliage has died back, they will return there for several years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and tips Tulip bulbs Prince mix\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant the bulbs pointed end up, about 12 to 15 centimetres deep and 8 to 10 centimetres apart. In grass, make a hole with a bulb planter, place the bulb in it and press the turf back down. Tulips like well-drained soil; if your soil stays wet, mix in some sand. In a pot, give them a drainage layer of gravel or clay pebbles; among our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/green-bubble.com\/en\/collections\/outside-pots-in-baskets\"\u003eoutdoor pots and baskets\u003c\/a\u003e you will find a suitable model. After flowering, cut off the spent flower and leave the foliage until it turns yellow. A little bulb fertiliser in early spring is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWater needs of the Tulip bulbs Prince mix\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn open ground the bulbs need little water. Only water after planting if the autumn is very dry. In a pot, water about once a week in spring as soon as the leaves appear. Never leave water standing in the saucer, because bulbs in wet soil will rot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLight needs of the Tulip bulbs Prince mix\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive them a sunny spot with at least six hours of sun a day.
