The website describes it perfectly: charming, understated elegance. The Strong Love is not a tulip that cries out for attention — it simply looks good. Warm in colour, strong in stem, reliable in character. That is exactly the sort of tulip that deserves a place in every garden, alongside the more spectacular varieties that demand all the attention. The Strong Love ties the whole display together.
What makes a Triumph tulip strong?
Triumph tulips are one of the hardiest groups in the tulip world — sturdy stems, compact flowers and a flowering period that outlasts other types. They are less susceptible to wind and rain than large hybrid tulips, and in a good spot they will return for several years. The Strong Love is a textbook example of this type: consistent, compact and ready for every spring.
Planting and combining
Plant the bulbs in autumn, about 15 cm deep, in a sunny, well-drained spot. The ‘Strong Love’ is easy to combine — it works well alongside almost any other tulip colour and also complements early-flowering perennials or Muscari as ground cover. It also thrives in a pot on the balcony. As a cut flower, it has a long vase life — cut early in the morning and place in cold water. Organically grown, certified NL-BIO-01.
