Garden with Jonny Tulip Queen of Night

Garden with Jonny Tulip Queen of Night (12 Bulbs)

Tulip Queen of Night produces velvety maroon-purple flowers that are so dark they appear almost black. Growing to 50–60 cm in height, they bring depth and contrast to spring plantings, especially when paired with paler tulips or other bulbs. Reliable and upright, they suit borders, beds, and containers, and also work well as cut flowers.

Planting Guide

• When to Plant: September to November

• Depth: 10 cm

• Spacing: 8–10 cm apart

• How to Plant: Place bulbs pointed side up, cover with soil, firm gently, and water in well

Care Advice
Keep soil moist during growth but avoid waterlogging. Deadhead flowers once they fade, leaving the foliage in place until it dies back naturally to help the bulb store energy for the following season. In heavy soil, tulips can be lifted after the leaves die back and stored in a cool, dry place until replanting.

What to Expect
Plant in autumn for blooms in mid to late spring. Upright stems reach 50–60 cm tall, carrying dark maroon flowers that add strong contrast in beds, borders, and containers.
