Large Cupped Narcissi Tom Pouce

With its soft lilac blooms, Early Single ‘Candy Prince’ resembles the iconic Parma Violet sweet. Each dainty petal is finely etched with deeper purple feathering, enhanced by a backdrop of silver-green foliage. Unlike some of the more gregarious tulips, this variety has a demure, muted air and makes an excellent partner to stronger characters such as ‘Negrita’.

Alone, the subtle, pale blooms of tulip ‘Candy Prince’ bring a feeling of cool peace and tranquillity to borders and container displays. Despite its delicate looks, sturdy stems remain robust even in inclement weather. Be sure to snip a few stems to enjoy the calming, pastel shades indoors.

With delicate, white flowers fluttering like a flurry of snowflakes, Cyclamen ‘Coum Alba’ is a superb early-season variety, blooming for weeks on end.

Lightly marbled, dark green foliage shows off the pearly blooms to perfection, and provides beautiful, ornamental groundcover. These little gems are a delightful complement to snowdrops and hellebores, ideal for underplanting trees and shrubs and filling container displays.

Hardy and easy-going, the RHS have bestowed this variety with their prestigious Award of Garden Merit. Cyclamen ‘Coum Alba’ provides a glimmer of floral joy during the darker months of the year.

Tulip ‘Rhapsody of Smiles’ boasts large, egg-shaped mango blooms delicately streaked with red.  Each flower appears slightly different to its neighbour thanks to the unique swirling flames of fruit salad tones.

This bright and bold may-flowering tulip will add warmth to spring borders and pots and is fabulous for cutting and adding a pop of cheerful colour to bouquets and floral designs.

Plant ‘Rhapsody of Smiles’ next to crimson tulips such as ‘Red Proud’ and fringed ‘Pacific Pearl’ to enhance the scarlet markings.
