Several-flowered happy family is single, not at all several-flowered, on any bulb, assuming it was the right variety, given that there is always a 25% error rate in tulip varieties with you, very disappointed... I will not order anymore. I had planned diverse flowerbeds with tulips of specific shapes and colours, result not compliant last year for 25% of the ordered tulips and still the same this year. Ok, you refunded a part, but it would be better to be vigilant and regular in your supplies because mistakes happen too often with tulips (and even with crocuses).

Description

The 'Happy Family' Multi-Flowered Tulip is a triumph tulip that produces several single flowers per bulb in a bright pink colour. The flowers stand on 45 cm (18in) tall stems above the tender green deciduous leaves. It blooms between April and May.

The 'Happy Family' Multi-Flowered Tulip belongs to the Lily family. It belongs to the group of tulips called "Triumph" which are known for their solid and resistant flowers with narrow cups in various colours.

Unmatched for bringing spring colour to pots or sunny gardens, don't forget to consider the height and flowering period when designing your flower beds, as these parameters vary significantly from one cultivar to another. It is wise to plant a few extra bulbs for cutting, as they make beautiful cut flowers that last a long time in a vase.

Tulip species are found 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.

In Europe, there are various wild species, many of which are endangered. These include large adventive tulips that grow among crops, 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 ones is the wild tulip (Tulipa sylvestris), which used to often grow under the protection of vines and whose subspecies australis is known as the southern tulip.

Planting and care

Plant the bulbs in autumn, from September to December, at a depth of 15 cm (6in), spacing them 10 cm (4in) apart. The planting should be done in ordinary soil, slightly acidic, neutral, or slightly alkaline, loose, well-worked, and well-drained. Never add undecomposed 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 and we recommend planting Heucheras, Tiarellas, Brunneras, Bleeding Hearts, Euphorbia Cyparissia, in the foreground of your flower beds. Their foliage will enhance the colours of your tulips and throughout the season, they will elegantly conceal their yellowed leaves.
