Garden Show

Genetic Potential and Phytosanitary Resilience

The Greigii tulip cultivar 'Garden Show' represents a breeding solution focused on a combination of compact dimensions and high adaptability to soil-borne pathogens. Unlike taller classes, this hybrid features a shortened flower stem, which significantly reduces the risk of lodging during heavy spring winds.

Agrotechnical Advantages

• Comprehensive Immunity: The cultivar's genetics include resistance mechanisms against Fusarium and Verticillium wilt. This is a critical factor for regions with "exhausted" soil, where traditional varieties would require intensive systemic fungicide applications.
• Viral Defense: A high level of resistance to Tobacco Mosaic Virus and Cladosporium minimizes the risk of losing aesthetic appeal under damp and cool spring conditions.
• Color Profile: The deep red pigment of the petals is maintained by a high concentration of anthocyanins, which synthesize reliably even upon early emergence from dormancy.

Its mid-season blooming period allows 'Garden Show' to efficiently bridge the gap in landscape design between ultra-early botanical tulips and standard mid-late classes. The low habit of the plant makes it optimal for border zones and container gardening, ensuring dense planting without sacrificing airflow between the stems.
