Growing guide for Tulip Fostery King Bulbs

Planting instructions

If you’re planting tulip bulbs directly in the ground in the fall, dig a hole that's about 3 times the height of the bulb. Place the bulb with the pointy end up, about 6 inches (15 cm) deep. Space bulbs about 4-6 inches (10-15 cm) apart. When planting in containers, use a container at least 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) deep. Plant bulbs at the same depth as in the ground, about 6 inches (15 cm) deep. Choose a container with good drainage. It could be a pot or a planter, as long as it has holes at the bottom to let excess water escape.

Growing Requirements

Pests

Common pests include aphids and deer. Use insecticidal soap for aphids and consider using fencing to keep deer away. Tulips can be susceptible to diseases like tulip fire and grey mould. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overcrowding. Remove any infected plants promptly.

soil

Tulips prefer well-drained soil. Ensure the soil is loose and not too compact. You can mix in some compost for better drainage.

spot

Choose a spot with full sun to partial shade. Tulips need at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Plant them where they'll receive morning sun and some afternoon shade in warmer regions.

temperature

Tulips thrive in cool to cold climates. They require a period of winter chill to bloom properly. Ideal temperatures for planting are around 50-60°F (10-15°C).

watering

Water your tulip bulbs after planting to settle the soil and provide moisture. After that, they typically don't need much water during the winter. Once they start growing in the spring, make sure to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.

how to harvest

Tulips usually bloom in spring. To harvest blooms for bouquets, wait until the flower is fully open. Use sharp scissors or garden shears to cut the stem just above the leaves. Place cut stems immediately in a vase with clean water. Change the water every 2-3 days to prolong the life of your tulip bouquet.
