Tulips are usually something that a gardener thinks about in the
fall because we plant the bulbs in the fall. We let them sit outside in the garden through the winter months and receive a chill so that the bulb will set its blossoms on each stock and then all we have to do is is really watch them bloom in the springtime.
Once they have finished blooming and the flowers are beginning
to show their signs of aging some gardeners will take off the blossoms so that the plant doesn’t put its energy into producing seed and it’ll help that bulb to grow bigger for blossoms next year. It will also help the bulb multiply so that we end up with more than one plant of each variety that we’ve planted.
So if you’re interested in growing tulips in your garden you may
find someone who has had multiples grow in their garden and see if they’re willing to share with you or look for them in the fall and plant in preparation for next year’s spring. The green tissue continues to photosynthesize and help that bulb store up energy.
So you want to leave the foliage on the plant as long as possible but once we get some heat, the leaves will begin to shrivel up and once they’ve died down or browned then you can cut off the foliage and that plant will store up all of its energy in the bulb to produce large big flowers the following year as well as multiplying. The idea is to leave the foliage on the plant as long as possible, but once we get some heat, the leaves will begin to shrivel up and once they’ve died down or browned, then you can cut off the foliage. This will store up all of the energy in the bulb to produce large, big flowers the following year as well as multiplying.
If you’re looking for a way to add a variety of interest in your garden you can add tulips to add variety of color and heights into your garden in the spring season and bring that color back to the garden that’s been so gray over the winter months.
