Gardener’s Tip
Plant bulbs between September and December, about 8 cm deep in well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded position. Tulips thrive in soil that drains freely during winter, helping to prevent bulbs from sitting in excess moisture.
Wear gloves when handling bulbs, as ornamental bulbs may cause skin irritation and may be harmful if ingested by pets. Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulb can store energy for strong blooms the following spring.
