Planting Instructions:
-
-
- Location:Plant Tulips in a location with full sun to partial shade. They prefer well-drained soil with good organic content.
- Planting:Plant Tulip bulbs in the fall, about 6 to 8 weeks before the first hard frost. Dig a hole that’s 2 to 3 times deeper than the height of the bulb and place the bulb with the pointed end facing up.
- Spacing:Space Tulip bulbs according to the recommended spacing on the packaging, typically about 4 to 6 inches apart.
- Care:Water newly planted Tulips after planting and then sparingly until they emerge in spring. Once they start growing, water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally before removing it. Fertilize with a bulb fertilizer in fall and spring.
