Maintenance skills of tulips
1. The growing environment of tulips needs a cold winter, so that they can keep blooming for several years. If the temperature is high in winter, it is not suitable for tulip planting. Tulips prefer cool and cold environment to excessive temperature.
2. It doesn't need much light to keep the tulip in position. It can grow well under the shade of trees or supplemented with appropriate scattered light every day, but it is not suitable to be kept in an excessively dark place. To cultivate tulip bulbs, it is necessary to keep proper spacing. Some varieties will grow taller, others will be shorter, so you should also ask about the varieties when buying bulbs.
3. To cultivate tulips, it is necessary to prepare well-drained soil, preferably sandy soil made of organic compost. The pH value of the soil should be kept between 6.0 and 6.5, and perlite can be added appropriately to maintain good drainage. Planting tulips must wait until the weather turns cold in autumn, and the planting depth is generally about three times the diameter of the whole tulip bulb.
