The tulip is a stalwart of the late-spring garden. There are hundreds to choose from, including traditional, single cup-shaped varieties, double-flowered cultivars and those with elegant, goblet-shaped flowers. Tulips grow best in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. However, they don’t always come back the following year and are therefore often best treated as annuals.

Flowers of Tulipa ‘Gavota' are deep terracotta red with a yellow band around the centre. Grow them in a mixed herbaceous border with other tulips, or use them to bring out the colour of red-flowered plants. Tulipa ‘Gavota' flowers on strong stems, making it an excellent choice for cutting.
