September and October are the time to plant tulips. Put medium-sized bulbs narrow tip up, ten to twelve centimetres deep. We recommend growing these plants in a moderately compact, fertile soil with a neutral reaction. It should be constantly moderately moist in spring and slightly drier in summer. Tulips usually require two rounds of fertilizing, one right after planting and the second after the first leaves appear in spring. Topping wilted flowers strengthens bulbs for the next season. Tulips are not sensitive to low temperatures, yet it is advisable to cover the site to protect them from extreme frost during the coldest winter months.
