Choose a sunny position with well-drained soil. For patio pots, use containers with drainage holes and a free-draining potting mix. Avoid waterlogged ground.
The pack recommends planting from September to December. October and November are a good choice for UK gardens. Plant while the ground is workable and avoid frozen or waterlogged soil.
Place bulbs with the pointed end upwards, cover with soil and water after planting. Plant in groups for a fuller-looking display.
Water during prolonged dry spells while the tulips are actively growing. Check pots regularly, as container compost dries out faster than garden soil. Avoid leaving containers standing in water.
Apply a suitable bulb fertiliser according to the manufacturer’s instructions during active growth. Stop feeding once the foliage begins to die back.
Remove faded flower heads and leave the foliage until it turns yellow and dies back naturally. This allows the bulbs to replenish their reserves. Repeat flowering can vary, and fresh bulbs may be needed to maintain a full display in future years.
Store unplanted bulbs in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place until planting.
For ornamental use only. Bulbs and plants must not be eaten.
