The Darwin Hybrid Tulips are known for their long, strong stems, making them ideal for cutting and placing in a vase. This variety blooms in the middle of the season (April/May). What makes this tulip extra special is that some can return for multiple years.
Tulips were introduced to the Western world by the Viennese ambassador to Turkey, Ogier Gisleen van Busbeke, who wrote about the flowers he saw in 1551 in Turkish Edirne. Later, he sent some seeds of them to Austria.
The arrival of a shipment of tulip bulbs in 1562 in Antwerp marked the beginning of European tulip cultivation. The first documented specimens were planted by the Fleming Carolus Clusius in the Hortus botanicus Leiden Hortus, which he led from 1593.
Plant the tulips between September and December before the first frost in a spot that receives full sun to light shade. They dislike wet feet. They can also be planted in a pot. Ensure good drainage.
