Planting Advice

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.

Was looking for a tulip that would add some color to the late spring and these were perfect. Took a little damage in a late cold snap but most bulbs still flowered. The ones that didn't unfortunately were hit with a few days of HIGH heat and the flower bud fizzled out. Foliage also has an outer white stripe with just a hint of pink that is more interesting than the average tulip so they still look nice even after the blooms are done. (PS I grew in 20" pots to keep the rabbits out).

Gorgeous Color
Multiple Blooms

Cons:

NO CONS!

Seriously my FAVORITE new tulip! I was a little concerned when they first opened up with yellow edges, not white, but within a week, the edges turned white. And they just keep producing more tulips on what appears to be a single stem! I am going to order more of these as soon as they are back in stock for next year. ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! I have already gotten so many compliments on them, they are just a delight in my landscape! YOU WILL LOVE THESE TULIPS!!!

Beautiful color combo
Look delicate
but are sturdy
Great value and quality

Cons:

These Kelly Triumphs are really pretty and the red and white combo really makes them special. They look delicate, but have been sturdy and full blooming during high winds and rain. These are my new favorites.
