PLANTING GUIDE

Tulipa - Parrot

Perennial, Zones 4-7

Bulb Planting Depth: 5-6”,  plant pointed end up

Height:  20-22”

Spacing:  5-6 bulbs per square foot, 4-6” apart

Light Needs: Full sun to light shade

Soil Needs:  Average to fertile, well-drained

Bloom Time:  Late-spring 

Uses:  Flower beds, containers, rock gardens, borders, cut flowers

Care:    Amend soil with compost before planting tulips. Feed with a granular flower bulb fertilizer at planting time or in the spring when the leaves emerge. Cut back spent flowers and allow foliage to die back naturally before removing it (4-6 weeks after flowering). In southern climates, with mild winters the bulbs need to have a chill period for 6-12 weeks before planting. Tulips do not like too much heat and tend to bloom longer when planted in a site with morning sun rather than just afternoon sun.
