The tulips are finally blooming and... they are not the pale pink Angelicas so romantic but the yellow Belicia flowers tinged with dark pink... We have been waiting to see them in the garden for 6 months. There was a problem with the stock management this year, it's a shame.

Description

Tulipa 'Angélique' is a late-flowering tulip with soft pink double flowers in April-May. The flowers are arranged in an open cup shape, resembling peonies, hence being known as peony-flowered tulips. You can pair it with pink or purple tulips to create harmonious combinations. The huge flowers stand atop 40cm (16in) tall stems above the broadly lanceolate leaves. The flowers are all different but share the same soft pink colour. It blooms in April-May.

 

Tulipa 'Angélique' belongs to the Liliaceae family. Of horticultural origin, it is currently classified in the group of "Late Doubles", characterised by their huge peony-like flowers and their resistance to inclement weather.

 

They are unmatched for bringing the colours of spring to pots or sunny gardens. This tulip beautifully decorates balconies and patios. When designing your flower beds, you must consider the height and flowering period of the tulips, as these parameters can vary significantly from one cultivar to another. It is wise to plant extra bulbs for cutting, as they make superb cut flowers that last a long time in a vase.

Tulip species are found throughout most of the Old World, from Western Europe to China and Japan, including Eastern Europe, Asia Minor, and Central Asia. Their distribution range also includes North Africa and the Indian subcontinent. The centre of diversity for the genus is in the Pamir and Hindu Kush mountains and the steppes of Kazakhstan.

There are various wild species, many of which are endangered. These include large adventive tulips from cultivated fields, the most well-known being the Agen tulip (Tulipa agenensis), as well as small tulips found in wooded areas or among rocks in the mountains. In cultivation, they are called "botanical tulips", and one of the most common is the wild tulip (T. sylvestris), which used to often grow sheltered by vines and whose subspecies, australis, is known as the southern tulip.

Planting and care

Plant the bulbs from September to December, at a depth of 15cm (6in), spacing them 10cm (4in) apart. Plant in ordinary, slightly acidic, neutral, or slightly chalky, loose, well-worked, and well-draining soil. Never add poorly decomposed manure or compost to the planting soil, as this could cause the bulbs to rot. Tulips will thrive in moist to dry soil. Plant them in a sunny or partially shaded location. After flowering, their foliage becomes unsightly, so we recommend planting heuchera, tiarella, brunnera, bleeding heart, or Euphorbia cyparissia at the forefront of your flower beds. Their foliage will enhance the colours of your tulips, and will elegantly conceal the tulip's yellowed leaves.
