Product Description - Tulip Twilight
The Tulipa 'Twilight' is an incredibly graceful, romantic, and picturesque Triumph variety. It earns its poetic name from a unique, watercolor-like coloring that evokes the soft glow of an evening sky. Its goblets have a strict, flawless geometry — dense, silky petals that hold their shape beautifully, opening very slowly and resisting bright sun or May winds. The striking contrast between the rich raspberry heart and the pure porcelain-white edges gives each bloom exceptional depth, graphic appeal, and spring freshness.
This medium-height, vigorous plant grows to 45–50 cm, with thick, rigid, perfectly upright stems that hold the blooms vertical without bending in the rain. The broad, blue-green foliage, with a light matte waxy finish, wraps closely around the stem, creating a perfect color balance for the vivid blooms.
Renowned for its resilience, 'Twilight' is one of the hardiest and most weather-tolerant Triumph varieties, standing up well to spring rain, wind, and disease. In the garden, this elegant bicolor variety is an essential tool for creating dense, refined borders and formal beds. It looks most striking in group plantings of 15–20 bulbs against a well-kept green lawn, conifers, or ornamental foliage perennials. Thanks to its versatile palette, 'Twilight' pairs beautifully with pure white, solid pink, lilac, or yellow tulips, as well as white daffodils and blue grape hyacinths. Sturdy stems, excellent transport durability, and an impressive vase life of up to 10–14 days make this variety a favorite for cutting, commercial forcing for spring holidays, and creating refined, contrasting floral arrangements.

How to Plant - Tulip Twilight
Planting & Care Instructions
Tulips are hardy spring-flowering bulbs ideal for garden beds, borders, pots and balcony boxes. For the best flowering results, choose a suitable location and follow the recommended planting depth for each tulip type.
- Planting time: Plant the bulbs in autumn, from September to December, before the ground becomes deeply frozen. Flowering time varies by type and variety, generally from March to May.
- Position & soil: Choose a sunny position or partial shade. Plant in loose, fertile and well-drained soil. Avoid areas where water tends to collect.
- Planting depth & spacing: Place the bulbs with the pointed end facing upwards. For standard garden tulips, size 11/12 cm, plant approximately 10–15 cm deep and 10–12 cm apart. For botanical tulips, size 6/8 cm, plant approximately 8–10 cm deep and 8–10 cm apart.
- Watering: Water moderately after planting, especially when the soil is dry. Additional watering during autumn is usually unnecessary. Avoid waterlogged soil.
- Growing in containers: Use pots or balcony boxes with drainage holes and a well-drained potting mix. Bulbs can be planted slightly closer together than in garden beds.
- After flowering: Remove faded flowers, but allow the foliage to remain until it naturally turns yellow and dies back. This allows the bulb to store energy for the following season.
- Returning each year: Botanical tulips are particularly suitable for naturalising and can multiply and flower for many years when conditions are suitable. Garden tulips may also return in following seasons, although flowering performance depends on the variety and growing conditions.
