Fall Planting Guide

1. Plant in autumn for spring flowering.
2. Choose a sunny to lightly shaded site with well-drained soil. Avoid areas where water collects.
3. Set bulbs with the pointed end facing upward. Follow the planting-depth guidance supplied with your bulbs, taking bulb size and soil conditions into account.
4. Space bulbs approximately 5–6 inches apart in beds. Use containers with drainage holes.
5. Water after planting to settle the soil, then avoid keeping bulbs persistently wet.

Spring & After-Bloom Care

• Water as needed during dry spells while plants are actively growing.
• Remove spent blooms and developing seedpods after flowering.
• Leave leaves intact until they yellow and die back naturally, allowing the bulbs to replenish their reserves.
• Reduce watering during dormancy and maintain good drainage.

Species tulips may return and gradually naturalize where conditions are suitable, but repeat flowering depends on climate, seasonal temperatures and drainage. Do not rely on tulips being resistant to deer or other browsing animals.
