Floral Harmony 'Moonlit Raven'
Tulipa
FamilyLiliaceae
TypeBulb
CycleBulbous perennial
Floral Harmony 'Moonlit Raven' (Tulipa) is a tulip blend with elegant cup-shaped blooms displaying deep shades of purple, burgundy, near-black and cream. This spring selection creates striking contrast in landscapes with its dark and refined colour palette. Strong stems carry well-formed flowers that add height and structure to garden beds. Its mid to late spring flowering period provides a dramatic and sophisticated effect, making it ideal for contemporary or romantic garden designs.
It prefers full sun to partial shade and light, fertile, well-drained soil. Bulbs are planted in fall, generally 15 cm (6 in) deep, before the ground freezes. Moderate watering after planting encourages even root establishment. It adapts well to Canadian gardens when drainage is adequate. Removing faded flowers helps maintain a tidy appearance throughout the season.
This floral harmony is suitable for borders, beds, decorative containers and cut flower gardens. Its dark colours pair especially well with silver foliage, light green plants and pale spring flowers. It brings an elegant and original atmosphere to landscape spaces. The blooms are also appreciated for fresh floral arrangements.

Seasonal care
After flowering, remove faded blooms and allow foliage to dry naturally. This process lets bulbs rebuild reserves before summer dormancy. Clean dry leaves once foliage has completely yellowed. Bulbs can remain in place for several years when soil conditions are suitable.
