Tulip 'Havran' is a truly beautiful, silk-satin almost black tulip with two to three flowers to a stem, excellent in the border and in pots. Elegant, silvery-blue foliage. Reliable, good weather resistance and good reappearance year after year. Can have two+ flowers per stem.
Don't plant tulip bulbs until the cold weather has set in- this helps wipe out viral and fungal diseases. Leave the browning foliage on your tulips until every leaf has died right down - this allows the bulb to store more food.
