I bought some lovely tulips today too from a local store in town... Tulip Bakeri Lilac Wonder Tulip Upstar and Tulip Little Beauty- plus of course some more Queen of the Night. I was only looking for some dwarf iris! All of the packs were £1.99p each. I think they'll make a lovely display.
Good choices! Lilac Wonder is reliably perennial (here, anyway - it's been growing and spreading for 30-odd years, helped out by the bulbs being inadvertently moved while they're dormant, when I'm moving other plants around - they don't seem to mind having other things growing in the same space after they've died back) and I have high hopes for Little Beauty, although I've only had that one for a couple of years.
Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
Shop around bought miniture daffs from garden centre £5.99 than same ones same amount Yorkshire trading £1.70 ,and actually the YT ones looked better quality bulbs,we will see when they flower.

I can vouch for Tulip Red Impression being perennial.
Originally planted under a very large oak tree, at least 10 years ago and still going strong. I've just bought another 30 to add to them.
