Will's styling notes
Plant both tulip bulbs together, ensuring a mix of white and dark purple bulbs. This will create a striking display as the two contrast against each other and the rich planting of the Soto Green collection.
Weave bulbs through existing planting ensuring enough space for the bulbs and plants to grow and not overcrowd.
Plant allium bulbs towards the back of your border to help provide structural interest.
Try to plant your tulip bulbs in small clusters enabling the eye to wander along the length of your border in spring time.
