Bastogne

Tulip Bastogne belongs to the Triumph class and is distinguished by its classic, rich red color, which gives the flowerbed a strict and elegant appearance. Its large buds have a goblet shape with slightly pointed petals directed inward, creating volume and grace. The flower height reaches 55-65 cm, and the cup height is 10-12 cm, while the diameter of the opening bud rarely exceeds 6 cm. The upright and sturdy stem allows the flower to maintain its shape and integrity even under adverse weather conditions, such as rain and wind.

The flowering of Bastogne tulip begins at the end of April and continues until early May, lasting about two weeks. The plant prefers sunny or partially shaded locations without strong winds and stagnant water. For planting, it is recommended to use slightly alkaline or neutral soil, as well as mineral fertilizers, which promote healthy growth and resistance to drought and frost. Bulbs are planted in September–October, and during blooming, the tulip not only delights with its bright color but also with a delicate, barely noticeable fragrance.

Tulip Bastogne is widely used to create striking flowerbeds in gardens and parks, and is popular among florists for making spring bouquets and gift arrangements. Its striking red color harmonizes beautifully with snow-white hyacinths and light yellow narcissus, allowing the creation of contrasting and harmonious floral compositions. This variety will become a decoration of any flowerbed, bringing notes of passion, elegance, and natural beauty.
