Description
The Fringed Tulip 'Fabio' offers simple, slightly open cup-shaped flowers dressed in a rich coppery orange-red, edged with bright yellow. Its beautiful delicately fringed flower will enliven flower beds, borders or bouquets with a real panache. It blooms in April-May, in the heart of the tulip season.
The Dentate Tulip 'Fabio' belongs to the lily family. Of horticultural origin, it is classified in the 'Crispa' group, whose main characteristic is the finely toothed petals. This tulip will reach a height of 45 cm (18in) when in bloom. The flowering takes place in April-May, a little later than other tulips. The flowers are simple, slightly open cup-shaped, in a rich and warm harmony of dark coppery orange with red highlights. The fringed edges of this magnificent tulip are enhanced with a very bright, almost orange yellow. The flowers last a long time and allow the tulip season to be extended until May.
In the world of flowers, there is truly nothing comparable to frilled tulips to spice up your garden in spring with something unique. Ideal for borders, the 'Fabio' Tulip will also create beautiful spots in perennial flower beds, alongside biennial plants that will fill the space after earlier flowering. You can choose wallflowers for this purpose. By choosing frilled tulips, you will bring a unique touch to your bouquets.

Planting and care
Plant the bulbs in autumn, from September to December, at a depth of 15 cm (6in), spacing them 10 cm (4in) apart. The planting should be done in ordinary soil, slightly acidic, neutral, or slightly alkaline, loose, well-worked, and well-drained. Never add undecomposed manure or compost to the planting soil, as this could cause the bulbs to rot. The 'Fabio' tulip will grow well in moist to dry soil. Plant it in a sunny or partially shaded location. After flowering, it is advisable to remove the fruits to avoid exhausting the plant. Allow the leaves to completely dry before cutting them. We recommend planting Heucheras, Tiarellas, and Euphorbias in the foreground of your flower beds, as their foliage will enhance the colours of your tulips and, during the season, elegantly conceal their yellowed leaves. Red and orange are uncommon in the garden, so let's take advantage of the wide range of tulips available in these colours. For an elegant effect, these tulips will be enhanced by dark green foliage, such as a hedge of yews or boxwoods. Also consider dark foliage plants like 'Obsidian' heuchera.

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.
