Growing Tips:

- Soil Preparation: Choose well-drained soil and enrich it with compost or organic matter to enhance fertility and drainage.
- Depth and Spacing: Plant the bulbs at a depth of about 20cm and space them 10cm apart to give each bulb room to grow.
- Sunlight: Select a sunny location where the tulips will receive at least 6 hours of sunlight per day for optimal blooming.
- Fertilization: Apply a Mr Middleton Seaweed fertilizer at planting time and in early spring as growth begins to promote robust blooms.
After Bloom Care:
- Allow the foliage to die back naturally to nourish the bulbs for the next year.
