    • Tulips perform best in full sun to partial shade
    • Plant tulips when temperatures have cooled in your area in fall. Once your daytime temperatures are in the 60’s or lower consistently, this is a good time to plant your tulips.
    • Tulips require 12-16 weeks of consistent temperatures below 50 degrees in winter in order to produce a flower bud; tulips are best suited to cold climates.
    • Adequate drainage is essential to the health of your tulips. Amend your soil with top soil and organic matter such as compost, manure, leaf mold or peat moss prior to planting. After you have amended your soil, it should be light and easy to work with.
    • Fertilize at planting with Hi Yield Bulb Food or for organic gardening use Bulb-Tone. Apply fertilizer at least 3” below the bottom of the bulbs so that the roots will get the most benefit from the fertilizer.
    • Tulips should be planted at least 6-8” deep with the pointed side of the tulip facing towards the sky. Dig the planting hole 12” deep so you can add fertilizer to the bottom of the hole. After adding fertilizer back fill with 3-4” of soil, plant your bulbs, then back fill with remaining soil.
    • Space tulips 4-6” apart when planting individual bulbs. For mass planting and brilliant bursts of color in the garden, plant the bulbs 2-3” apart in bouquet planting groups, trenches and garden beds.
    • Immediately after planting, water the tulip planting area. This helps to eliminate air pockets in the soil. After the initial planting, it is not necessary to provide any supplemental water to the area. In spring once the tulips have emerged you may water as necessary, although spring rains often make providing additional water unnecessary.
    • Apply a layer a 2” layer of mulch in late fall.

    I, like the others, must have received a lot of pink. Animals are a few as well. The second year they got larger and more blooms.

    Nearly perfect - mislabeled

    Pros:
    • Everything bloomed
    Cons:
    • Mislabeled
    We planted these in October (Chicago - Zone 5B) and they all came up and are blooming nicely, some with double or triple blooms.

    1st - Persian pearls (purple)
    2nd - Little beauties (pink)
    3rd - Tardas (yellow)

    Technically, a could Tardas came up before the beauties, but en masse, the beauties were second.

    Like the other recent review I saw , our Little princesses (orange) were mislabeled - we got a double crop of Little beauties. Still pretty but I was really looking forward to the full variety.

    Pros:
    • Good quality
    • great value.
    Cons:
    • Mislabeled variety
    I am in zone 6a. Hard to count since there are so many but I think nearly 100% came up! They sprouted in early March (except the Tardas, which were a couple weeks later) but did not start to bloom for another 3-4 weeks. The Persian pearls were first. Then the Little Beauties, which are really gorgeous, quickly followed by the Tardas. Many of the Little Beauties had 2 blooms per plant and this was just the first year. My bag of the Little Princesses (the orange ones) was apparently mis-labeled, because they are actually Little Beauties. I’m bummed I didn’t get any of the orange ones, as advertised, but they are lovely nonetheless. I planted them in between a bunch of daylily plants which will cover the dying foliage.
