The Thompson & Morgan Tulip 'Wild Romance' is ideal for gardeners looking to add sophisticated, peony-style elegance to their spring borders or cut flower arrangements. These bulbs offer a stunning transformation as the petals transition from crisp white with soft pink edges to a deeper, more intense pink hue, providing a high-impact visual display. While they are exceptionally hardy and reliable for the UK climate, they require a commitment to regular watering during dry spells and a sunny planting location to reach their full flowering potential.

These should be planted in the autumn months before the ground freezes to ensure they are established for spring blooming.

Yes, they perform well in pots, provided the container has drainage holes and is placed in a sunny location.
You can remove the faded flower heads to keep the garden neat, but leave the foliage until it turns yellow so the bulb can replenish its energy.
Ensure the bulbs are planted in an area receiving full sun and verify that the soil is not overly saturated or waterlogged.
Check soil moisture levels; while they need water during dry spells, ensure there is adequate drainage to prevent root rot.
To ensure your Tulip 'Wild Romance' bulbs thrive, plant them in a location that receives full, direct sun throughout the day. Prior to planting, ensure the soil is loose and well-draining to prevent waterlogging, which can damage the bulbs. During the early spring, apply a balanced, general-purpose fertilizer to support vigorous stems and healthy blooms. Maintain consistent moisture levels by watering regularly during dry spells, particularly in the period immediately following planting and throughout the active growth phase. Once flowering has finished, leave the foliage to die back naturally to allow the bulb to store energy for the following season, though you may remove the flower heads to keep the garden looking tidy.
