🌷 Mix of single tulips • 🎨 Pale pink, soft pink, coral and cherry red • 🌿 Stems about 50 cm tall • 🌤️ Flowers from April to May • 💐 Superb in bouquets • ☀️ Full sun • ❄️ Very hardy • 📏 Bulbs size 11/12
The 'Positive Vibe' tulip mix brings together tulips with single cup-shaped flowers in four shades that echo one another: pale pink, soft pink, coral and cherry red. From April to May, they open together on stems about 50 cm tall. It is a European horticultural selection.
Their warm, soft colours create a bright bed, as lovely in the ground as in a large pot or a bouquet. Among our flower bulbs, it is the pink and coral tulip mix, ready-made for a harmonious bed without having to match the bulbs.
Which tulip should you choose?
- 'Positive Vibe' tulip mix (this plant) — single cup-shaped flowers in pale pink, soft pink, coral and cherry red, about 50 cm, April to May. For a warm bed in shades of pink and coral, ready-made.
- 'Glowing with Pride' Tulip — mix of red, pink, blush white and salmon orange flowers, 45 to 55 cm, April to May. For similar tones, brightened with blush white.
- Darwin tulip mix — large plain flowers in red, yellow, pink and orange, 50 to 60 cm, in April-May. For a more multicoloured bed, with yellow.
- 'Macaron' Tulip Mix — cup-shaped flowers in shades of pink and purple, 40 to 50 cm, April to May. For a pink colour scheme that leans towards purple.
- Pink Triumph tulip — warm pink, 40–50 cm, in April. For a single-colour pink bed.
- 'Mata Hari' Tulip — white flowers edged with raspberry pink, 40 to 45 cm, April to May. For a pink and white bed of a single variety.
- 'Symbiose' Tulip Mix — double flowers in deep pink, apricot flamed with pink and soft yellow, about 40 cm, in April. For similar tones, in full flowers.
We also offer other mixes, lily-flowered tulips and flamed tulips: all of them are featured in our tulip bulb collection.
Plant a few 'Mata Hari' among the bulbs of the mix: their white flowers edged with pink brighten the coral and cherry red, at the same time.
How many bulbs should you choose?
Tulips make the most impact planted in tight groups: allow about 40 bulbs per square metre, or 10 to 12 bulbs in a 30 cm diameter pot.
- 20 bulbs: two large pots on a balcony or terrace, or a group of about 0.5 m² in a bed.
- 40 bulbs: about 1 m², for a flowering edge along a path.
- 80 bulbs: about 2 m², for a real spring bed.
- 160 bulbs: about 4 m², for a large border or a cutting patch of tulips.
The bigger the pack, the lower the price per bulb: the 160-bulb pack works out at less than half the price per bulb of the 20-bulb pack.
Planting & location
Tulips are planted from October to December, once the soil has cooled, for flowers from April to May.
- Position: full sun; in the sun, the flowers open wide and their colours become more vivid.
- Depth: 15 cm, pointed end up.
- Spacing: 10 cm between bulbs in the ground, 3 to 5 cm in pots.
- Soil: well drained; add sand to heavy soil, as the bulb rots in waterlogged ground.
- Hardiness: fully hardy, they overwinter in the ground without protection.
Plant the bulbs at random rather than by colour: the mix looks more natural and the pink, coral and cherry red blend better.
Watering & care
In the ground, rain is enough. In pots, check the moisture with the finger test and water only when the compost is dry 2 cm down.
- Watering: low — at planting, then in pots when the compost is dry on the surface, especially while the buds are forming.
- Fertilizer: unnecessary in the ground; in pots, use a bulb fertilizer as the leaves emerge.
- Faded flowers: cut the flower off just below the head as soon as it drops its petals, leaving the stem and leaves.
- After flowering: let the foliage turn yellow where it is for six weeks; it rebuilds the bulb’s reserves.
In a pot, give it a quarter turn every week in spring: the stems stay straight instead of leaning towards the light.
Decorating ideas & plant pairings
Their pink and coral shades brighten a sunny balcony in spring, like plants for a sunny balcony.
- For a blue carpet at their feet, plant Armenian grape hyacinth — its bright blue 15 to 20 cm spikes flower in March-April and make the pink and coral of the tulips stand out.
- For a brighter bed, plant Narcissus 'Thalia' among them — its pure white 30 to 35 cm flowers open in April, at the same time as the tulips.
- To extend the show into June, plant Allium 'Purple Sensation' behind them — its purple balls, 8 to 10 cm across on 70 to 80 cm stems, open in May-June and take over from the tulips.
- For a patio version, plant 10 to 12 bulbs in the white Elho Greenville Round pot, Ø30 cm, with a few muscari planted above them at 7 cm — the white of the pot sets off the pink and coral of the flowers, and the drainage holes prevent standing water.
In a vase, mix the different colours of the blend: a few pink, coral and cherry red stems are enough for a luminous bouquet.
Verdeia tips
- Wait for the soil to cool: ideally plant from late October. In soil that is still warm, tulip bulbs are more prone to disease.
- Cut them in bud for the vase: pick them in the morning, when the bud is coloured but still closed; they then last a week in a vase and make a spring bouquet among plants to give as gifts.
- Add a few bulbs every autumn: tulips flower again, but the blooms get smaller over the years. A few fresh bulbs each year keep a border well filled.

Our Verdeia commitments
FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Orders ship within 48 working hours, with tracked delivery in 2 to 5 working days via DPD. Shipping costs and the free-shipping threshold depend on your country — see our delivery page. You receive a tracking link as soon as your parcel leaves.
What should I do when my plant arrives?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What should I do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
