Est Reading Time : 10 min(s)
Fluffy Flamingo - Tulips and Narcissus
Florissa’s Fluffy Flamingo is a Colourful Companions mix of coral-pink tulips and white, double-flowered narcissi with warm peach-toned centres. The combination brings a soft, coordinated look to mid-spring beds and bouquets. The package contains 12 bulbs and lists a flowering height of approximately 40 cm (16 in).
Plant these spring-flowering bulbs in autumn in a sunny to lightly shaded position with well-drained soil. Group them in borders or a roomy container for a fuller display. Florissa also recommends this combination for cut flowers.
Jazzberry Jam Tulips
Jazzberry Jam combines deep burgundy tulips with striking white, red-streaked lily-flowered tulips. The contrast between the rich, solid blooms and pointed, patterned petals makes this a lively late-spring combination. This Florissa package contains 12 tulip bulbs and indicates a height of approximately 70 cm (28 in).
Tulips grow best in a sunny site with free-draining soil, making this mix suitable for spring borders and large containers with drainage holes. The packet also identifies Jazzberry Jam as a good choice for cutting, so it can bring its contrasting colours indoors.
Roseberry Tulips
Roseberry is a soft-and-bold tulip pairing with blush-pink blooms beside richly coloured raspberry-purple and white bicolour tulips. Its classic cup-shaped flowers create a coordinated mid-spring display without relying on a single shade. The package includes 12 bulbs and lists a height of approximately 40 cm (16 in).
Use Roseberry in small groups through a sunny spring border or plant the mix together in a well-drained container. These tulips are also labelled suitable for cut flowers, allowing the pink and purple tones to carry into simple indoor arrangements.
Bouquet of Sunshine - Tulips and Narcissus
Bouquet of Sunshine brings together full, golden-yellow double tulips and white narcissi with pale yellow centres. It is a bright, springtime pairing with contrasting flower forms, and the packet identifies the narcissi as fragrant. Florissa lists this as a 12-bulb, mid-spring-flowering mix reaching approximately 50 cm (20 in).
Plant in autumn where the soil drains well, ideally in sun or light shade. Group the bulbs together in a border or a large patio pot to enjoy the complementary colours. The package also marks this mixture as suitable for cut flowers.
Sun Shower - Tulips and Narcissus
Sun Shower pairs warm orange-to-coral tulips with cheerful, double yellow narcissi. The upright tulip cups stand above the more ruffled narcissus blooms, creating a bright mid-spring display. This Florissa Colourful Companions package contains 12 bulbs, indicates a height of approximately 40 cm (16 in), and identifies the narcissi as fragrant.
Plant the bulbs in autumn in fertile, well-drained soil, where they receive plenty of spring sunlight. The combination works nicely planted in a group in the garden or in a container with reliable drainage; Florissa also recommends it for cut flowers.
Moonlit Raven Tooltips
Moonlit Raven is a dramatic combination of nearly black, deep purple tulips and crisp white tulips. The simple two-colour palette highlights the elegant shape of the blooms, making it an effective choice for a more restrained mid-spring display. The packet contains 12 tulip bulbs and lists an approximate height of 50 cm (20 in).
Plant Moonlit Raven in groups in a sunny, well-drained bed or patio container so the light and dark blooms can be enjoyed together. The packet also recommends these tulips for cut arrangements.
Canadian Eh! Tulips
Canadian Eh! celebrates a classic red-and-white pairing, with vivid red tulips set against clean white blooms. The bold contrast makes a strong statement in mid-spring borders and containers. This Florissa mix contains 12 tulip bulbs and is labelled to reach approximately 60 cm (24 in).
For the best spring show, plant in autumn in full sun and well-drained soil. Arrange the bulbs in clusters rather than single-file rows for a more natural display. The stems are also identified on the package as suitable for cutting.
Choose Joy Tulips
Choose Joy is a lively mix of sunny yellow tulips and rosy pink tulips, with warm yellow tones appearing in some of the pink blooms shown on the package. It is designed for a cheerful mid-spring display. Each packet contains 12 tulip bulbs and lists an approximate flowering height of 45 cm (18 in).
Grow in a bright position with well-drained soil, either among spring perennials or in a container that can be moved into view as the flowers open. Florissa also recommends Choose Joy for fresh-cut bouquets.
Delft Duo Crocus
Delft Duo features early-spring crocuses in rich violet-purple and clear white, both accented by bright orange-yellow stigmas. Their low-growing blooms bring colour close to the ground at a time when much of the garden is still waking up. The packet contains 24 crocus corms and lists a flowering height of approximately 10 cm (4 in).
Plant in autumn in a sunny, well-drained spot, among rocks, at the front of a border or beneath deciduous plants where they receive early-season light. Florissa marks this mix as suitable for naturalising, meaning the corms can be left in an appropriate site to establish and return.
Violet Skies - Tulips and Scilla
Violet Skies pairs richly coloured, double purple tulips with delicate clusters of pale blue-violet scilla flowers. The contrast between the rounded tulip blooms and the smaller, airy flower spikes creates a layered late-spring effect. This Florissa mix contains 16 bulbs and lists an approximate display height of 50 cm (20 in).
Plant in autumn in well-drained soil, choosing a spot with spring sunshine or light shade. This mix works well planted in groups through a border, where the small scilla flowers can weave between the larger tulips. The packet also identifies the combination as useful for cut flowers.
Double Bubble Allium Mix
Double Bubble is an ornamental allium mix featuring large, spherical flower heads in white and soft violet-purple. Their clusters of tiny, star-shaped flowers create architectural interest above the garden in late spring. The Florissa packet contains four bulbs, describes the blooms as approximately 6 inches across, and lists a height of about 90 cm (36 in).
Ornamental alliums prefer full sun and soil that drains freely, especially during wet winters. Plant the bulbs in autumn and use these tall, rounded blooms among perennials or in groups for a repeated design accent. The package identifies the mix as fragrant, deer resistant and suitable for naturalising.
