Planting Instructions

Plant bulbs outdoors in fall before the ground freezes
- Choose a sunny location with well drained soil.
- Plant bulbs 6-8” deep, pointed end up, 4-6” apart. We plant our bulbs closer like eggs in a carton for cut flowers, but for landscaping they are typically spaced out or planted in clusters.
- You can also add bulb fertilizer with the bulb, available at the big box stores.
Water well after planting.
- Do not overwater in spring - it can lead to bulb rot.
If you choose to cut your tulips for your own home bouquets, be aware that will affect the bloom for next year and make take a few seasons for the flower to recover.
