Tulip Species Honky Honk
T1033
Like the lively country music of the same name, ‘Honky Tonk’ is an upbeat, sprightly tulip to put a spring in your step. Flutes of cheerful yellow blooms are blushed with soft pink, opening in the warmth of spring sunshine, and closing to a neat point by night. This Species variety multiplies well and is ideal for naturalising amongst grass, with its green-blue foliage featuring a delicately waved edge.
A compact habit means these blooms are equally suited to brightening containers and edging borders. The RHS have honoured ‘Honky Tonk’ with an Award of Garden Merit, the seal of approval for garden performance.

Pseudonarcissus
N0587
Also known as the ‘Lentern Lily’, ‘Pseudonarcissus Lobularis’ is the original wild British daffodil. Petals of pastel, pale yellow are crowned by a deeper mustard coloured trumpet. Gracing the garden with an air of Informality and romanticism, the modest stature of these daffodils blends well amongst grass without dominating the scene. Incredibly easy to grow,
‘Pseudonarcissus’ are some of the best daffodils for naturalising, being perfectly adapted for the British climate. Ideal for meadow planting, grassy banks, and dappled shade under trees, the ‘Lentern Lily’ will soon form glorious swathes of joyous colour. The longer they are left undisturbed, the better they become!
