Jan Hein's favorite Tulip. Who is Jan Hein again, you may wonder. Well, Jan Hein is the young man who has been passionately caring for our Daffodils for years and is building up a beautiful Tulip nursery himself.
Jan Hein has really beautiful tulips, including the varieties Blue Diamond , Rosy Diamond and Novi Sun that you can find in our webshop, which come from Jan Hein's nursery.
When I asked Jan Hein why he found such a good Tulip at Alison Bradley, I got an answer that shows he has an eye for it. The parents of Alison Bradley are Monte Carlo and Negrita , he told me, both Tulips that were grown on hundreds of hectares in the past, so the growth power must be there.
Furthermore, Alison Bradley is an all-round Tulip, she does fantastic in the garden but is also very suitable to use as a cut flower in the winter months. She also has very long-lasting flowers, in the garden she blooms for weeks and as a cut flower she has an excellent vase life. And if you plant large bulbs of Alison Bradley in the garden she is very multi-flowered, each Tulip of size 12/+ gives at least 3 flowers.
Finally, Jan Hein said with a big smile, 'and of course I just think she's incredibly beautiful'.

Planting and caring for tulip bulbs
Plant tulip bulbs in autumn in a sunny or lightly shaded position with well-drained soil. Place the bulbs with the pointed end facing upwards at a depth of approximately two to three times the height of the bulb. Leave around 8 to 10 cm between the bulbs.
Plant tulips in groups for a colourful and natural effect. They are also ideal for containers and make wonderful cut flowers. Allow the foliage to yellow naturally after flowering so the bulbs can store energy.

You can order tulip bulbs from us from early spring onwards for the following planting season. We deliver the bulbs in autumn so they arrive at the right time for planting.
Flowering time varies by variety. By combining early, mid-season and late-flowering tulips, you can enjoy tulips in bloom for much of the spring.
That depends on the effect you want to create. In our range, you can choose from shorter and taller tulips, cut-flower tulips, tulips for pots and a variety of tulip mixes.
We supply our tulips in the largest bulb size and with a flowering guarantee. High-quality bulbs give the tulip a strong starting point for growth and flowering.
It depends on the variety. Some tulips are reliable perennial bloomers and can perform well for several years, while others are mainly planted for their first spring display. Check the characteristics of the individual variety when choosing.
Yes. Combining early, mid-season and late-flowering varieties can extend the flowering period and bring colour to the garden throughout a larger part of spring.
