During April and May Arundel Castle in West Sussex is alive with colour as its Annual Tulip Festival reaches full bloom.
This year’s festival is the largest the Castle has ever featured, and the largest public display of its kind in the country, with more than 38,000 stunning flowers on show, including a labyrinth comprised of 8,000 red tulips.
Pink, purple, red and white are the key colours for this year’s displays with tulip varieties such as Purple Dream, Purple Prince, Pink Impression and White Triumphator in bloom at the Castle.
The next event at Arundel Castle’s gardens will be the Allium Extravaganza, expected to reach its peak towards the end of May, where eruptions of brightly-coloured pom-pom headed Alliums explode into flower and tower above neighbouring plants.
