Planting & Care

Tips on Growing Fall Planted Flower Bulbs

When you receive your fall bulbs (tulips, daffodils, etc.) keep them in a dry, dark, cool place until ready to plant. They need air circulation so they will not collect moisture and rot. Planting times can vary from early October in the North to mid-to-late November in the southern regions. A good rule of thumb is to plant them about 6 weeks before the ground is frozen or after the first hard freeze.

Soil Preparation for Bulbs

A compost enriched, well-drained soil is best. Incorporate a good quality organic compost as needed. Yum Yum Mix® is recommended as an excellent source of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium needed for strong plants and healthy roots. Mix a small amount into the bottom of the hole before planting your bulbs.

Many bulbs prefer full sun exposure. However, Muscaria, Allium, Galanthus, Hyacinthoides, Scilla and many Daffodils will tolerate partial shade and bloom well.
Pink daffodils will hold their color longer if planted in dappled shade or morning sun/afternoon shade.

After planting, add a top dressing of compost or other organic material and water in thoroughly. If your winter is dry, water every three to four weeks throughout the winter and add more mulch if necessary.

Protect your Bulbs

Apply a mole or gopher repellent to the surface of the ground to protect bulbs from these burrowing mammals.

After your Bulbs have Bloomed

Once your bulbs have bloomed, allow the bulb foliage to brown and fade naturally since the leaves are feeding the bulb in the ground. Removal of foliage weakens the bulb and leads to fewer blooms the following year. Planting your bulbs amongst your perennials is one way to conceal the dying bulb foliage. The perennials begin to grow and fill out as the bulb foliage dies back. The perennials will then provide foliage and color in the garden from late spring through the summer and into fall. Regular fertilization with balanced organic or natural fertilizer and a re-application of mulch each fall will ensure more and more beautiful spring bulb blooms for many years!

Reviews

Almost all yellow

"Mine were also almost all yellow, which is an extra disappointment among a garden full of daffodils. The pinks are stunning however. I'll be marking the yellow ones to dig up and give away."

— Anne (2/5)

Not quite the color combo I was hoping for

"I'm enjoying these tulips, but the picture is not quite what I received. Mine are pink and purple, unlike the yellows and oranges in the picture."

— Mjoy (4/5)

Beautiful colors

"These grew perfectly framing my front walk. the colors are great and they grew very tall and hardy with very little attention in Aurora Colorado."

— Lizzie (5/5)

Buying Again

"I'll be buying these for the THIRD time this year. They work great in my SE Washington garden. The difference in heights and colors makes for a happy, somewhat informal, slightly wild-looking assembly. Neighbors enjoy and compliment."

— Sam (5/5)

I will be buying more of these!

"These tulips are putting on quite a show right now! I wish I planted more and will be this fall."

— DAH (5/5)

I DID buy this product again!

"One reviewer said ""I would buy this again. "" I DID buy it again! Spring of 2023, I had four groups of five near deciduous trees. They were tall and gorgeous. As the trees leafed out and offered shade, the tulips lasted and lasted. So I bought 20 more bulbs to plant for spring of 2024. The height was regal and I loved the duration of the blooms."

— Flower C. (5/5)

For some reason, mine were almost all yellow.

"These bulbs came up nicely and were robust. However, almost all of the bulbs were yellow. There was not the interplay of color that I was looking forward to."

— Slcgardener (3/5)

Great spring tulips!

"My granddaughters each planted one tulip type and are quite proud of their crop of tulips."

— Lucky L. (5/5)

Bright, early bloomers

"We still have several feet of snow in early May, so its wonderful to be able to brighten the yard with a container of tulips, daffodils and hyacinths. The bulbs starting poking their heads up in late March, and were blooming by early April. They're still blooming beautifully on May 7 (I have the planters on dollies so I can roll them into the garage when its snowing or below 32F, which unfortunately has been more than half the days/nights this spring)"

— Britt (5/5)

Yes, loved these tulips!

"Planted them and they are thriving"

— Debbie (5/5)
