Tulip Foxtrot – Cultivation Advice

  1. Plant between September-November, before the ground freezes.
  2. Loosen the soil to a depth of around 30cm and mix in organic matter to improve the drainage and soil quality.
  3. Use a hand trowel or bulb planter and dig a hole which is double the depth of the bulb.
  4. Place the bulb with the pointed end facing upwards.
  5. Gently cover the bulb and lightly compress the soil.
  6. Use a fertiliser in early spring, when new growth appears to support healthy blooms.

Tulip Foxtrot – Tips

• Choose a location that receives full sun, ideally at least six hours of direct sunlight daily. This helps produce larger bulbs.
• After flowering, deadhead spent blooms to redirect energy back into the bulb and allow foliage to die back naturally before removing it to help replenish nutrients for next year’s growth.
• Avoid putting tulips and daffodils in a vase together due to daffodils letting out a substance that can prevent tulips from taking up water.
