A paper bag filled with bright coloured Tulips.

Colour can come from flowers, foliage, bark, pottery, furniture, fences and even artwork, but in the end it is all about colour. Choose the colour that suits you, it’s your garden, so if you’re happy who cares what anyone else thinks. However, understanding the basic principles of using colour in design can help make that picture in your head a reality.

The Tulip comes in almost every colour and is one of the best-known flowers in The Netherlands. They have to be planted in October and November and the flowering time is from April till June. Especially the 'Botanic' Tulip is suitable for the garden. They can remain in the ground and will flower again the following year.
