Tulip Dordogne is an elegant Single Late tulip, first introduced in 1991. Derived from the popular Menton variety, it is highly prized for its large, goblet-shaped blooms and remarkable colour-changing tones, which develop beautifully as the flowers mature.

Planting & Growing Instructions
Plant bulbs in well dug soil about 8-10cm deep and approx 15cm apart. It is often beneficial to use a little bonemeal or super phosphate mixed in with the soil. Tulips delight during their growth in a sunny location.
 
Cultural Instructions
After the tulips have bloomed and when leaves fade and turn brown the bulbs can be lifted, dried, cleaned and stored in a cool place until planting time. Tulips should not be grown in the same soil for several years, so replace with fresh soil every other year.
