Tulip ‘Pink Mist’
Tulip ‘Pink Mist’ is a tulip of subtle charm and quiet atmosphere—its beauty lies not in drama, but in the softness of suggestion. The blooms emerge with a gentle grace, their petals lightly feathered and finely pointed, forming a loose, chalice-like shape that feels as though it’s been brushed into being by a passing breeze. The color is a delicate veil: a whisper of blush pink suffused with silvery undertones, like early morning light diffused through mist. There is a tenderness to it—restrained, yet captivating.
Flowering in mid-spring, ‘Pink Mist’ reaches a height of around 16–18 inches (40–45 cm), rising on slender but resilient stems. It holds itself with an easy elegance—neither too upright nor too loose—creating an impression of effortless balance. In the border or the cutting garden, it lends an airy softness that catches the light and complements stronger shapes around it.
Position: Thrives best in full sun and well-drained soil. This tulip benefits from planting in multiples—drifts or clustered groups—where its gossamer coloring can create a cool, calming effect. Its understated petals and fine form make it ideal for looser, meadow-style plantings or as a gentle foil to bolder hues.
Style tip: Pair with pale narcissus or silvery-blues such as Muscari ‘Valerie Finnis’ or Tulip ‘Blue Heron’. It also sits beautifully among soft grasses or underplanted with forget-me-nots for a romantic, woodland-inspired scheme.
Why it captivates: ‘Pink Mist’ offers something deeply restful—a tulip that brings the quiet magic of an early spring morning into the garden. It doesn't compete for attention but rewards a slower gaze. Subtle, ethereal, and full of grace, it is a flower that gently transforms its space.
How to Plant & Grow Tulips
Quick Planting Guide
Planting time: Fall, after soil has cooled (September–November, depending on climate)
Soil: Well-draining, fertile, sandy or loamy
Depth & spacing: 6–8" deep, 4–6" apart
Light: Full sun (at least 6 hours daily)
Bloom: Mid–spring (varies by variety: early, mid, or late spring)
Step-by-Step Planting Instructions
1. Prepare the bulbs
Tulip bulbs are plump, teardrop-shaped, with a pointed tip.
Plant in fall once soil has cooled but before the ground freezes.
2. Choose the planting site
Select a sunny spot with well-draining soil — tulips dislike soggy ground.
They grow beautifully in borders, beds, containers, or naturalized in grassy areas.
Improve heavy soil with compost and sharp sand or grit.
3. Plant the bulbs
Plant bulbs 6–8" deep and 4–6" apart.
Pointed tip faces upward.
Water well after planting to settle soil.
4. Growing on & care
Watering: Little water is needed over winter. In spring, keep soil lightly moist during active growth and bloom.
Feeding: Apply a balanced bulb fertilizer at planting and again when shoots emerge in spring.
Mulching: A light mulch layer protects bulbs from winter temperature swings.
5. Bloom time
Tulips bloom from early to late spring depending on the variety.
Flowers range from classic single cups to fringed, peony-flowered, or parrot styles, in nearly every color.
6. After flowering
Deadhead spent blooms to prevent seed formation.
Leave foliage intact until it yellows and withers — this allows the bulb to recharge.
In many climates, tulips perform best as annuals — replant fresh bulbs each fall for the strongest displays.
In well-drained soil, some perennialize and return for several years.
Tips for Success
Plant in groups of 10+ for the best impact.
Combine early, mid, and late-season varieties for weeks of continuous bloom.
Tulips are excellent in containers — layer with other spring bulbs for a “bulb lasagna” effect.
Protect from rodents by lining planting holes with chicken wire or using bulb cages.
