Tulip Red Tiger
Don’t be fooled by the name—Tulip ‘Red Tiger’ isn’t loud or stripy, but it does have a quietly powerful presence. Its elegant, cup-shaped blooms are a rich coral-red, with a soft satin sheen that catches the light beautifully. There’s a slight shimmer to the petals, giving them depth and a lovely sense of movement, even when perfectly still.. This is a Triumph tulip, which means you can count on it for strong stems, classic shape, and reliable flowering. Blooming in mid-spring, around April, it stands at about 40–45 cm tall—perfect for mixing into borders or adding a bold splash of colour to containers.. Despite the name, there’s nothing aggressive about Red Tiger. It pairs beautifully with cool-toned blues, creamy whites, or even deep purples if you're after something more dramatic. It's a versatile tulip that plays well with others, while still holding its own.. Plant in autumn, in a sunny or lightly shaded spot with free-draining soil. As with most tulips, it’s best treated as an annual for the most reliable show, but it may return in favourable conditions.. For those who love tulips with strong colour and refined form, Red Tiger is a real springtime standout.
