If you were to ask me which tulip naturalizes best, I would recommend this one. There is hardly a single tulip that truly naturalizes in the garden like a daffodil can, but Van Eijk has such vigor that it can keep going for years. After its introduction in 1995, Van Eijk quickly grew into one of the most cultivated garden tulips, truly a success story. It faded into the background for a while due to years of overproduction, making it impossible for growers to make a living from it. Fortunately, Van Eijk is making a comeback. Truly a trouble-free tulip for both the grower and the gardener. It is interesting to know that Van Eijk originated at the Agricultural University in Wageningen, where a successful breeding program focused on disease resistance in tulips was launched at the time.

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.
