Siam tulips thrive in a bright, shady spot with plenty of humidity, so long as you plant them in a potting mix that drains well.
All in all, these plants are wonderfully low-maintenance and simple to care for, making them perfect for a novice indoor gardener who wants to try their hand at something new.
Enhance the beauty of the plant and your space by placing it in a modern planter.
Like all Gingers, your Siam Tulip plant will die-back during cool months.
Please note: Siam Tulips are considered toxic to pets.
