Viridflora Tulips
Flowering in late spring, Viridiflora Tulips carry colour through the tail end of the season. Their green-marked petals add subtle contrast to borders, beds and containers.
At J. Parker’s, our Viridiflora Tulip range brings together varieties selected for reliable garden performance and distinctive colouring. ‘Greenland’ blends soft pink with fresh green tones, while ‘Spring Green’ offers a clearer white and green contrast suited to lighter planting schemes. ‘Purple Doll’ provides deeper colour with the group’s characteristic green markings, working well as a focal point or in mixed displays.

Where to plant Viridiflora Tulips
Viridiflora Tulips grow best in sunny, open sites with free-draining soil. Good drainage is important in wetter spring conditions to support strong rooting and steady growth. Their upright habit suits borders, raised beds and containers where plants are not overcrowded.

Companion plants for Viridiflora Tulips
They work well with other late-spring bulbs such as Muscaris, Hyacinths and Narcissi. Low planting with forget-me-nots or wallflowers helps soften the display and highlights the green tones in the petals.

Growing Viridiflora Tulips
Plant bulbs in autumn at a depth of two to three times their height in well-prepared, free-draining soil. Water only if the soil is dry after planting, then leave them to establish naturally. After flowering, remove spent blooms but leave foliage in place until it dies back fully.
