Tulip Pizzazz and Euphorbia Fuse
The acid-hued yellows and greens of euphorbias create a stunning contrast with a myriad of spring flowers—the acid yellows and greens of Euphorbia x martinii play a beautiful counterpoint to maroon and white tulips and a cotinus that's just coming into leaf.
Radiant Daffodils, Wallflowers, and Violas
This vivacious ensemble features 'Tete a Tete' daffodils and wallflowers. A late autumn planting is optional; spring nurseries stock both of these plants in abundance.
Grape Happiness with Feather Grass
Grape hyacinths, while they may spread abundantly, are a breeze to grow. Combine them with other spring bulbs or a dainty, compact grass like Stipa tenuissima for an exceptional pairing.
Trillium Delight and Fern Enchantment
With their beautiful shade-loving properties, trilliums bloom well in lightly shaded areas; they complement other woodland plants beautifully, particularly when ferns unfurl in spring.
Don't be shy to experiment
Tulips flourish most when planted fresh each autumn, allowing you the freedom to experiment with your arrangements year after year. Be bold and change your plant combinations with each passing season!
- Liven up your home-and-garden lifestyle this April by planting a vibrant combination of spring bulbs and companions. For an eye-catching display, consider the Tulip Pizzazz and Euphorbia Fuse, where acid-hued euphorbias create a stunning contrast against maroon and white tulips.
- To add a touch of drama to your lifestyle, experiment with the Blossom Bliss and Wallflower Magic, featuring stepover apples, wallflowers, or tulips that bring a picturesque beauty to even the smallest gardens.
