2. It is advisable to dig up the bulbs when the leaves turn yellow. Depending on the flowering period of various varieties, this is the second half of May or mid-June (in Crimea).
3. After digging, the bulbs are dried in the shade, in a well-ventilated place, they are cleaned of old mother scales, the new crop is sorted by size and set for storage.
4. To avoid the spread of diseases, the bulbs are treated with fungicides; it is useful to sprinkle them with colloidal sulfur.
5. During storage, it is very important to observe the temperature regime, which regulates the passage of all organ-forming processes in the bulbs, determining the future flowering and the quality of new bulbs.
6. Storage temperature should not exceed + 25 ° С.

 

Application

Tulips Triumph are good in the spring decoration of the local area, summer cottage, in various mixborders, on flower beds. Suitable for winter-spring forcing (from January to March inclusive) and for cutting.

* Blossoming dates are for the southern regions.

In the spring, missing the warmth and flowers, we meet bulbous primroses with special tenderness and joy. The largest of them are tulips (Tulipa L.). This wonderful noble flower needs no introduction, it is familiar and loved by everyone. For a long time, wild tulips grew in the forests, then, with the light hand of Peter I, their most beautiful hybrids gradually began to enter our lives. Now there are a huge number of tulip varieties and new ones are constantly appearing. It is not surprising to get lost in such a variety. Scientists have created a classification that can help amateur gardeners choose the right varieties of these flowers for their site.

General overview of the classification

From 1913 to 1929, botanists and plant breeders in Holland and England worked to create a classification of the species and varieties of tulips that existed at that time. Since then, it has been periodically updated - new varieties are added and outdated ones are excluded.

The modern international classification divides tulips into 4 large groups, which, in turn, are divided into classes (15 of them are highlighted). The division of this plant into groups was based on the timing of their flowering. The only exception is the last (fourth group), which includes wild species and all varieties of tulips derived from them.

We propose to consider together in more detail all the positions of this classification. And the presented photos and names of varieties will make our review more informative.

Early flowering tulips. Group-I

The first group is made up of early flowering tulips. It is divided into two classes - simple and terry.

Class-1. Simple early flowering

Simple early flowering tulips (Tulipa single early) have been known for a long time, since the times of Peter the Great. They are strong and hardy, they are not afraid of spring weather, therefore they are very popular. They reach a height of 40 cm. The flowers are in the shape of a glass or a bowl and tend to open completely. The color is dominated by bright and warm yellow-red tones. Flowering begins around mid-April. Tulips of this class will decorate a spring flower bed with dignity. Looks good in containers and pots. They are often used for winter forcing. But due to the insufficient length of the peduncles for cutting, they are not suitable.

For example, the red-pink Christmas Marvel, bred in 1954, became the basis for the creation of many wonderful sports ("sport" is a plant with characteristics different from those characteristic of this variety, for example, a different color of petals, no border, etc.). One of them is Christmas Dream - a pale pink glass, located on a sturdy 45 cm flower stalk.

Large and wide glasses of Pink Trophy attract attention with a lilac-pink hue. A sea of ​​bright sunny colors will add a motley red-yellow Mickey Mouse to the garden.

The very popular and unpretentious plum-red tulip of the Couleur Cardinal variety is old, its history begins in 1845. But thanks to its highest decorativeness and simple maintenance requirements, it is still actively cultivated. A low (up to 30 cm) peduncle makes it convenient for creating flower beds, borders, rabatok.

A short, sturdy man (15-20 cm) with elongated glasses of deep red Brilliant Star looks amazing in a group container planting. To match it is the same small, but with a large flower glass, the snow-white Diana variety (bred in 1909).

Delicate and romantic, Olga has a cup-shaped deep pink flower with a white border. Light orange General de Wet, despite its decent age (bred in 1904), will decorate any flower garden with dignity.

Of course, we have named only a few representatives of this class, although it is considered small in number.

Class-2. Terry early flowering

Terry early flowering tulips (Tulipa Double Early) begin their history from about 1613. Its European name "Double Tulips" got due to the special structure of the flower, which has two rows of petals (as if one six-petal flower is in the middle of another). Especially lush varieties have three additional petals. Terry tulips are rather low (up to 30 cm), which makes them unsuitable for cutting, despite the beautiful large flowers (their open diameter is about 12 cm). Often used as a pot culture and for forcing, and in the garden, they decorate the front rows of various flower beds with dignity. This class is characterized by long flowering (more than 10 days).

Like simple tulips, the early double tulips have a strong peduncle, are resistant to spring weather and bloom at the same time. Although sometimes even a strong stem does not hold a heavy, luxurious flower.

The baby (about 10 cm) Abba is very popular, its rich red flowers immediately attract attention. Spring varieties Monte Carlo and Mr. van der Hoef. Raspberry petals with pale pink edging make up the flowers of the Melrose cultivar. Orange flower lovers will love the stunningly vibrant melon and salmon Monte Orange.

The most delicate colors will give you the light lemon variety Verona, the snow-white handsome Mondial, white with small yellow stripes Evita.

This class is also considered not numerous, but the choice is huge.

Although this group is called early flowering, it should be noted that some varieties of tulips of Kaufman, Greig and other botanical species bloom even earlier.

Medium flowering tulips. Group-II

The second group consists of medium-flowering tulips, which are divided into two classes - Triumph and Darwin.

Class-3. Tulips Triumph

Tulips Triumph (Triumph) were withdrawn after 1910, and in 1923 they were first put up for sale and already had their original name. In the process of their selection, simple early tulips, Darwinian hybrids, as well as some old varieties were used.A distinctive feature of this class are high (about 70 cm) rather strong peduncles, large goblet flowers that keep their shape well. The color of the petals can be absolutely any, different shades and their combinations. Long-lasting flowering begins in late April and early May.

All the characteristics of Triumph tulips make them suitable for cutting. They are also widely used in flower garden decoration. Can be used for medium to late distillation. Reproduce well vegetatively.

Today, Triumph tulips form the most numerous class.

In order to visually present them to you, it is very difficult to choose several varieties from such a variety and splendor.

It is impossible to pass by the Arabian Beauty tulip. His large (up to 12 cm) light purple glass, thanks to the yellow edge, glows like a magic lamp from the inside. Interesting color in the Roman Empire variety, the red petal on top is decorated with the widest white border.

The snow-white elongated White Dream flower looks very aristocratic. The red, with a velvety sheen of Ben van Zanten will flash brightly on the flowerbed. The sunny yellow Strong Gold will add golden colors to your site, its glass never opens and lasts a long time after cutting. The peach-orange Amazone will provide a positive mood. Lovers of black tulips will be interested in the Ronaldo variety with very dark velvet purple petals.

The unusual shape of the glass with sharp, slightly curved white petals and a pleasant aroma make Agrass White attractive. The pink-lilac variety Barcelona also has a wonderful sweet aroma.

Care and cultivation of Triumph tulips are very simple. They are undemanding to the composition of the soil, they can grow in the shade and even in wind-blown places.

Class-4. Darwin hybrids

Darwin hybrids (Darwin Hybrids) is the most common tulip class, formed in 1960. They are a selection of Darwin and Foster tulips. These hybrids have a high stem (up to 80 cm), a large bowl-shaped flower (about 10 cm). A characteristic feature of the flower is a rectangular bottom, most often black. The petals of this class of tulips are predominantly red, although there are other colors, including two-color ones. Darwin hybrids do not have only purple-lilac flowers.

Big chief

The main disadvantage of most varieties of this class is considered to be their ability to fully open on a sunny day, although some people even like it. On the other hand, Darwin's hybrids are resistant to diseases and spring weather, and retain their decorative effect for a long time. They are widely used in spring flower gardens, as well as for March distillation. The varieties of this class are very similar to each other.

Daydream and Chambery have a beautiful salmon shade. American Dream has a very elegant glass with an unusual color; a red border looks very impressive on sandy-yellow petals. The tulip Come Back has a royal crimson-red color. Smooth transitions from almost red to pale pink distinguish the color of the petals of the Big Chief variety. The magnificent elongated yellow glass of the Conqueror exudes aristocracy.

The most delicate colors are presented by the following varieties: Hatsuzakura - creamy white with a lilac-pink wide border; ivory Ivory Floradale; snow-white Lanka.

Lovers of dark shades should definitely pay attention to the Gavota variety and its maroon flowers with a yellow border, Armani tulips are dark red with a thin white border.

As you can see, although the flower shape is the same for Darwin hybrids, the variety of colors makes them different from each other.

Late flowering tulips. Group-III

This group is the largest and most diverse. It included 7 classes - simple, lily-colored, fringed, green-colored, Rembrandt, parrot, terry.

Class-5. Simple late blooming

Simple late blooming (Single Late) combined Darwin's tulips in their class, as well as the old species Breeders and Cottage. The newly formed class is characterized by a fairly high stem (up to 75 cm), large egg-shaped goblets of flowers with an almost square bottom and rounded petals.The color range is not limited, there are also variegated bicolor varieties. They begin to bloom in mid-May. Due to the strong high stem and long-term decorativeness of the flower, they have proven themselves well in cutting and are very popular for decorating plots. But not all varieties are suitable for forcing, since they have a long growing season. This class of tulips is quite hardy against adverse conditions.

Blushing Lady yellow with mauve veins, as if shaded with a crimson pencil Hemisphere white flower, a pretty pink and white Aleida with a bronze-yellow border, draw attention to itself with an unusual two-tone color.

Dark colors can be imagined by varieties such as Cafe Noir with its burgundy coffee glasses, black and purple Queen of Night, purple Bacchus.

Light pink Angels Kiss captivate with their tenderness, Renown's carmine-pink bud shimmering with silk, Weisse Berliner white with a light cream shade, and apricot-pink Menton. An unusual shape with bent petals and a lilac-pink, like a porcelain glass in the Picture variety. The snow-white Weisse Berliner will surprise you with its multifloral nature.

Bright and sunny will make your garden rich red with a yellow bottom Wisley, bright red Gordon Cooper, red-pink with a wide orange border Favorite Beauty, salmon orange My Lady, rich yellow with red strokes Hocus Pocus.

Class-6. Lily tulips

Lily tulips (Lilyflowering) came to Europe from Turkey in the middle of the 16th century, but due to poor endurance they did not take root. Later, as a result of selection, quite strong varieties of these tulips were obtained. Now they delight everyone with their lily-shaped glasses with gracefully bent pointed petals. The stems of lily tulips are strong, of medium height (about 60 cm). They bloom in mid-May (immediately after Darwin's hybrids), the first of the late-flowering class. The color of the flower can be any. Suitable for cutting, and also very intensively used in landscaping. Only some varieties are suitable for forcing.

Lily tulips are very good! For example, the Ballada varietal group represents flowers of various colors - purple with a white border Ballade, purple with a lemon-yellow border Ballade Dream (Sonnet), bright yellow Ballade Gold, orange Ballade Orange (Je t 'aime), white-cream Ballade White, lilac-pink with a wide white border Ballade Lady.

You will feel the splendor of noble red tones with the rich red tulips Red Shine similar to the velvet royal crown, the lighter color of the Royal Gift tulip, the orange-scarlet Cobra, and the dark red Captain Fryatt.

The personification of tenderness can be called the cream variety Elegant Lady, light yellow Budlight with a wide white border, light pink Zantens Memory, ivory Macarena glass, white with pink-crimson Holland Chic stains.

The variegation will be provided by yellow-orange with a raspberry stripe Marjolein, yellow star-shaped Flashback, salmon Kokker Fan Fan, orange-raspberry Marjan.

Dark tones can be imagined as a velvet purple Burgundy, a contrasting combination of dark purple and white in Akita.

Class-7. Fringed tulips

Warbler

Fringed tulips or orchid (Fringed) - The result of a random mutation of simple tulips. The first such variety was recorded in 1930. Modern breeding deduces them on purpose. Many characteristics of fringed tulips depend on the parent class. For example, the timing of flowering. In the total mass, they are tall (up to 80 cm), the shape of the flower can be goblet, cup-shaped, lily-colored. The main feature that distinguishes this class is the presence of needle-like outgrowths - "fringes" along the edge of the petals. Tepals are stiffer than those of other classes. Varieties derived from Darwin's hybrids are suitable for forcing, while those derived from late tulips are good for cutting.

Fringed tulips are certainly very beautiful, their colors are very varied. For example, white with purple splashes Aria Card, chic raspberry red Barbados, dark purple Black Jewel, red-brown Labrador, white-pink Crispion Love, cherry with a thin white border New Santa, snow-white Honeymoon, creamy orange Ballroom.

They resemble fluffy chickens yellow Warbler, a pleasant combination of lilac with yellow fringe in Aleppo flowers.

Terry fringed varieties look unusually magnificent - the most gorgeous red-pink Kingston, the most delicate white-pink Queensland, motley red-yellow Bastia, dark red Maroon, foamy white Snow Crystal.

Planting and caring for this class of tulips requires more effort than the original species, in addition, they need careful protection against variegation virus.

Class-8. Greens

Green tulips (Viridiflora), as well as the fringed ones, are the result of a mutation that was fixed by selection. Green-colored tulips were allocated to a separate class in 1981. They are characterized by their green bottom and green thickened center on the petals, which can be of any color. There are varieties of medium and high heights. The unusual appearance has made these tulips very popular nowadays. They are actively used in decorating flower beds, have proven themselves well in cutting.

Since this class of tulips is young, its varietal diversity is relatively small.

Meet some of the green-flowered tulip class. Delightful and delicate pale orange with rosy Golden Artist, elegant pink Virichic, violet with a silky sheen Night Rider, noble red Eyecatcher. A wonderful lily-shaped flower, painted in several shades of green with a delicate creamy Deirdre border. And the yellow Monte Spider tulip will amaze you with its exotic shape.

Since in their origin green-flowered tulips are similar to fringed tulips, they are also inferior to the original species in hardiness and resistance to variegation virus.

Class-9. Tulips Rembrandt

Tulips Rembrandt (Rembrandt). This class brings together all the petal forms of tulips. Initially, these were Darwin's tulips, infected with the variegation virus. Then this trait was genetically fixed in some varieties. The Netherlands tulip leader banned Rembrandts and stopped growing them. The only exceptions were some old varieties. The characteristic color of their petals includes spots and strokes that make them original. These are medium-sized tulips. Use them with caution in park landscaping. This is the smallest class.

A surprisingly unusual black and white color for the Black and White tulip, Absalon dark reds with yellow touches, Adonis purple with white touches, purple with dark streaks and light yellow Papillion, a raspberry glass with whitish Columbine touches.

If you decide to decorate your site with Rembrandt tulips, then plant them separately, away from other species, to exclude infection.

Class-10. Parrot tulips

Parrot tulips (Parrot) - the most original of all types. Their petals can be of any bizarre shape - twisted-curved, wavy, torn. This class got its name for the similarity of petals with bright disheveled feathers of parrots. These tulips are generally medium-sized (up to 60 cm). Their huge flower heads can reach up to 20 cm and are accordingly heavy. Therefore, when decorating a plot, they should be tied up or planted between other plants that can support them. For the same reason, these tulips should be protected from the winds. They bloom most often in the second half of May.

Let's start our acquaintance with this type of tulips with one of the most exotic - the green-yellow Exotic Parrot. Well, can you tell right away that this is a tulip?

Dark purple frozen Night, blue Blue Parrot, bright yellow Yoko Parrot, fancy purple with white Mysterious Parrot, greenish pink Air, velvet red Rococo (there is also an orange variety), randomly arranged snow-white petals with dark green veins Super Parrot varieties.

True, like tropical birds, the combination of coral red, yellow, cream and green in the petals of the Apricot Parrot. A very unusual one, similar to ice cream in an Ice Cream cup, is very popular.

It blows with spring and tenderness from the peach-yellow tulip Creme Upstar with the lightest crimson blush.

Variegated varieties - red-yellow Double Flaming Parrot and white-raspberry Estella Rijnveld (Gay Presto).

If you want to appreciate the beauty of parrot tulips, then plant them in the foreground separately from other varieties.
