KNOW THE PLANT YOU ARE ORDERING

Choose the plant and the cutting grade.

Longfield Gardens describes this selection in its growing catalog. Its listing is for planting stock, not a live cut-stem offer. Confirm that a grower can supply the named variety as cut material for your event date. Ask a grower for the exact cultivar, an available cutting grade, and a sample before making it part of a client proposal.

The reference covers a named cultivar. Keep that identity with the recipe. A similar common name or another member of the same genus can differ in flower form, color, and usable stem length.

Explore Tulipa species in the botanical directory . The directory covers species; named garden cultivars are described in these florist guides.

02 / DESIGN WITH INTENTION

Ways to use foxy foxtrot tulip
in wedding flowers.

These are design starting points. Test your sample with the actual cut material, venue conditions, and mechanics.

Bridal bouquets

Build the outline with a few focal placements, then use smaller flowers to connect them. Leave space for the open heads instead of counting tight buds as finished coverage.

Low centerpieces

Repeat the main flower at different heights within a low vessel. Check the design from every seated viewing angle before scaling the recipe.

Aisle and ceremony details

Use focal clusters at the points guests will see most closely. Create and cost a separate recipe for larger pieces rather than enlarging the bouquet by guesswork.
