Tulip 'Black Hero'

'Tulip 'Black Hero'' is a dramatic addition to any garden with its velvety double blooms that shimmer with a reddish-brown glow. A descendant of the famous 'Queen of Night', this tulip takes the crown with its glossy purple-mahogany flowers that are even more captivating.

As a late-flowering variety, 'Black Hero' opens its blooms in May, when many other tulips have finished their show. It reaches a height of about 45–50 cm and stands on strong stems, making it ideal for both garden beds and cut flower arrangements. Its dark colour makes it a perfect contrast companion to pale pastel tulips like 'Angelique' or 'Spring Green', creating a harmonious and eye-catching combination.

'Tulip 'Black Hero'' is a hardy tulip known for its long-lasting flowers. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it adaptable to a variety of garden settings.
