Why we LOVE Dutch tulips
Dutch tulips are a highlight of the season — subtle, structured, and full of impact. Persimmon’s warm tone adds vibrancy to any bouquet, while the tulip’s classic form adds simple beauty. Their reliable vase life and strong stems make them perfect for both minimal styling and larger arrangements.

How to style
Style alone in a slim vase for striking colour impact
Pair with tonal seasonal florals for balance
Use a tall, narrow vase to emphasise the tulip’s clean lines and stem length

For 25 stems, opt for our Royal Windsor Vase, Glazed Fluted Vase or Small Mayfair Vase
For 50 stems in our Wide Apothecary Vase or Wickstead Pot options

Your tulip care tips
- Trim 1–2cm from each stem and place in cold, clean water.
- Keep away from direct heat or sunlight to slow their natural bend.
- Refresh water daily for maximum vase life.
- Expect movement — tulips continue to grow after cutting.
- Please keep tulips away from pets and children as they are toxic and should not be consumed

Q&A

How long will my FLOWERBX tulips stay fresh?

FLOWERBX tulips typically last 5–7 days in a vase with proper care. Tulips continue to grow even after cutting, which means stems may gently bend or move toward light over time. Refresh the water every two days and trim stems slightly to keep them hydrated. For more advice, explore our Tulip Care Guide.

How do I care for my tulips?

Place your tulips in fresh, cool water as soon as they arrive. Trim the stems slightly before placing them in a vase and remove any leaves that fall below the waterline. Remember, tulips prefer cooler rooms away from direct sunlight or heat, and refresh the water every two days. Discover more tips in our Tulip Care Guide.

Which vase is best for a 25-stem tulip bouquet?

A medium-height vase with a supportive shape works best for 25 tulips. Tulips naturally continue growing in the vase, so a vessel that gently holds the stems together helps maintain balance. Our Glazed Fluted and Royal Windsor vases pair beautifully with tulip bouquets. Shop our full vase collection to choose your favourite.

Do Dutch tulips keep their shape well in a vase?
