A Spectacular Duo Idea with Tulip 'Calgary' & Tulip Charmeur'
Spring Combination Ideas, Bulb Combinations, Plant Combinations, Flowerbeds Ideas, Spring Borders
Create extraordinary spring borders like this one. Combine 2 elegant Triumph Tulips, 'Calgary' and 'Charmeur', and create pure enchantment in your mid-late spring garden. As with the Impressionists' paintings, where the artists used paints to manipulate color effects by using hues that intensify by contrast with each others, here the snow-edged bright pink blooms and variegated foliage of Tulip 'Charmeur' offer an astonishing contrast to the immaculate blooms of Tulip 'Calgary'.
A planting idea that is ideal for beds and borders, banks and slopes, edging or containers. All plants make excellent cut flowers and look gorgeous in a vase too. Enjoy!
