Planting instructions

Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Plant in fall before the ground freezes, setting bulbs approximately 6 inches deep with the pointed ends facing upward. Incorporate compost where needed to improve soil structure, and avoid areas where water collects.

• Arrange bulbs in informal groups of five or more for a fuller display.
• Use containers with drainage holes and a freely draining potting mix.
• Water after planting if the soil is dry, then avoid prolonged saturation.
• In warm-winter areas, confirm local chilling requirements before planting; tulips need a cold period to flower well.

Care and cutting

Keep soil moderately moist during active growth without leaving it waterlogged. Remove faded flowers and allow leaves to yellow naturally before removing them. When cutting stems for bouquets, leave as much foliage as possible to support the bulb.
