Why Choose Bigger Tulip Bulbs?
When it comes to tulip bulbs, size can make a big difference. Here's why opting for larger tulip bulbs like our Tulip Queen of Night is a wise choice:
Larger bulbs possess more energy reserves, enabling them to develop stronger and healthier roots. This robust growth translates into larger, more vibrant blooms that make a striking impact in your garden.
Larger bulbs are known for their ability to produce sturdier stems and larger blooms. This not only enhances their visual appeal but also extends their lifespan, allowing you to relish their captivating beauty for an extended period.
Larger bulbs are inherently more resilient to environmental stresses. They can better withstand adverse conditions, such as extreme temperatures or soil inconsistencies, ensuring your Tulip Queen of Night flourishes and remains a stunning focal point in your garden.
For not much more money you can be sure of a great display where it matters. If you’re looking for impact then we would recommend going bigger. They’re still great value for money too.
