How To Grow Tulips In Your Garden

Tulips bring multiplicity to your yard and you can buy tulips of any color you can dream of. You can treat these wonderful flowers as annuals to be planted every year. You can also treat them as perennials, lasting 24 months before replanting.

These gorgeous spring flowers can last into the summertime. They can deliver elegance to your residence whether inside in a vase or on the outside in your garden. With these tips on how to grow tulips, you’ll be having fresh, marvelous tulips. Contact a Rochester arborist for more information on tulip planting.

Well-drained soil

Tulips detest too much moisture. Make sure the soil can drain well and is fertile. This is one of the top growing tulips tips. You can help the soil to drain by adding shredded pine bark or sand. Besides, you shouldn’t water your tulips unless there is a long dry spell. Moisture isn’t your friend when growing tulips. It encourages fungus to develop as well as makes the bulbs rot.

Right time for planting

When planting tulips, timing is everything. Your tulip bulbs must be planted before the winter frost arrives. The soil will become compacted and solid during frost making it hard to plant your tulips. The aim is to keep the tulips beneath the ground during winter’s severe weather. If you plant too soon, the tulips will grow in the winter, and they’ll die in the winter. The perfect time for your tulip planting is spring, so they live into the summertime.

Dig deep

Your tulip bulbs must be planted at least eight inches deep into the soil. If you have large tulip bulbs, dig even deeper and plant them. Plant them near the surface, and your tulip bulbs will rot or obtain too much moisture. A good tip is to dig deeper than the recommend inches, so the soil remains loose.

The right side

Ordinary error folks make when growing tulips is planting them upside down. Your tulips will grow into the ground, and all that planting will be for naught. When planting your tulip bulbs, the pointy side must be facing up so that the tulips can grow up. Be cautious when covering your tulip bulbs. You don’t want them to change places with the soil. Be sure to push the soil firmly over the planted tulip bulbs. Though, the soil has to be loose to drain extra water.​
