You will also find this stately Tulip in our French Blend and French Blend Rose mixtures.
Among the French Tulips, also called Scheepers Tulips, Dordogne is the Tulip with the warmest and most exciting colours. From a distance Dordogne looks like a Tulip with a warm orange colour, from a closer look you see a beautiful subtle pink in the flame on her flower which she got from her mother; the Tulip Menton .
The pink playfully changes into all sorts of shades from light orange to golden yellow. Dordogne radiates the same warmth as the rustic region in France after which it is named. It is a late bloomer, but well worth the wait.

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.
Read our complete guide to when and how to plant and care for tulip bulbs.
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.
