Imperial splendour, early blooming and large flowers make fosteriana tulips like Tulip 'Orange Emperor' a must-have for your garden. Start the season in regal splendour and enjoy each perfect bloom for weeks. The tangerine petals have golden bases that create a perfect setting for the black anthers as the plump blooms open in the spring sunshine. Plant Tulip 'Orange Emperor' in bold groups (royalty prefers to have an entourage) and combine them with narcissi for a gorgeous flower-meadow effect that brings sunset colours into your spring garden. They’re perfectly happy in pots too, and the long-lasting blooms do well as cut flowers.
