Description
Tulip 'Suncatcher' is a Rembrandt-type variety with sunny flowers. They are a beautiful bright yellow colour, streaked with scarlet red, and create a striking effect under the spring sun. Each stem, very sturdy in adverse weather conditions, bears a flower with a unique but always vibrant pattern. Superb in a flower border or in a flower bed, before adorning vases.
Tulipa 'Suncatcher' belongs to the Liliaceae family. Of horticultural origin, it is currently classified in the group of "Triumph" tulips, resulting from a cross between "early single" tulips and "Darwin" tulips. However, it can also be classified in the horticultural category of "Rembrandt" tulips, division 9. Their main characteristic is to have flowers with variously variegated colours. In the past, these tulips were ordinary plants affected by a virus spread by the green peach aphid. It was the virus that was responsible for the variegation of the flowers. Nowadays, Rembrandt tulips are the result of cross-breeding and selection. The 'Suncatcher' variety develops a strong flowering stem of about 50 cm high. Its fully open flower measures 6-8 cm in diameter. The bright yellow petals are randomly streaked with scarlet red in April or early May, towards the middle of the tulip season. The foliage emerges from the ground in spring. It consists of large lanceolate, 10 to 35 cm long leaves with a glaucous green colour that turns yellow and then dries a few weeks after flowering when the bulb enters its dormant period.
Triumph tulips are ideal for bringing spring colour to pots or sunny gardens. Consider the height and flowering period when designing your flower beds, as these parameters can vary significantly from one cultivar to another. It is a good idea to plant a few extra bulbs for cutting, as they make beautiful long-lasting cut flowers. The 'Suncatcher' tulip finds a place in large flower beds with other white, yellow, orange, or red tulips. Forget-me-nots, yarrow, or grape hyacinths will enhance its flamboyant colours. You can also plant this tulip at the base of a purple-foliaged shrub or a golden yellow-foliaged shrub, the combination of colours and textures is interesting. Tulips are also very good cut flowers.

Allow the leaves to dry completely before cutting them.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
