Armani Tulips

Armani is a Triumph tulip. Tall - 45 cms - stems carry goblet shaped flowers of the deepest burgundy red with clearly defined white edges. Giorgio doing a bit of piping on the lapel perhaps! Whether Signor Armani had a hand in the design of this tulip or not, it is stunning in containers or in drifts in the border. One of the most striking of our range of tulip bulbs for sale.

Flowering starts in late April and goes well into May, helping to cover over one of those periods when many gardens can look a bit "flat". Plant Armani by itself for impact or mixed with a pure white tulip such as Diana for a more subtle effect.

Colour: Wine red, white edges
Height: 45 cms
Scent: None
Flowering: April/May
Bulb Size: 10/11 cms
Planting Depth: 3 times the height of the bulb
Planting Months: October - November

Tulips are generally best grown in borders and containers. They like richer soils with good drainage.

Give Armani a bit of room when planting - we recommend leaving 10-12 cms between bulbs. The planting depth should be at least three times deeper than the bulb is tall. The pointy end is the top...

If you want to keep your tulips for the following year, plant them DEEP (20 cms is fine) and deadhead as soon as the flowers fade. Many varieties will stay in the ground and multiply happily, but if you are in doubt, it is a good idea to lift them when the foliage has withered. Dry them off in a dark, dry, cool place, remove any dried soil and store them (in the dark at a low room temperature) in a tray or net, having first removed any diseased or damaged bulbs. Replant the following October/November.

Applying a high potash fertiliser during the growing season improves the flowering performance the next year. Lift and divide clumps of tulips if flowering is poor.

Because couriers sometimes experience delays, we schedule delivery by week, not by day. Therefore, please plan your planting day for the weekend at the end of the delivery week or for the week following delivery, at the earliest.
We will email you the day before your plants are due to arrive.

*Surcharges to the Highlands and Islands still apply.

Payment: We do not charge your card until we begin to prepare your order for packing.

Guarantee: If any plants die within a year, we will replace them. We only ask that you follow our planting & growing instructions and sent us clear photographs of the dead plants in situ, so we can help to make sure that the replacement plants succeed. You only pay for the delivery of the replacements.

Please note that our guarantee is void if there is a hosepipe ban in your area: your newly planted hedging must be watered in dry weather while it is establishing. The best way to water is very thoroughly every few days: at least once a week if there is no heavy rain.

Our nursery has been supplying container grown and bareroot hedging plants to gardeners, farmers and town planners since 1949. Our website started in 2003, so we do understand the concerns that you may have about buying hedging plants online. If any of your plants are damaged when they arrive or if you are otherwise not satisfied with your order after you inspect it, please repackage it and contact us. We will give you a refund or send replacements and send a courier to come and collect the unwanted plants.
