Tulips – Cut and Still Growing?
Q: This spring my wife cut a tulip and put it in a small vase of water. The stem was three inches long. After a week the stem was over five inches long. Is it normal for a tulip to continue growing after being cut?
A: I don’t believe the stem is growing from additional cells. My bet is it’s growing from the existing cells absorbing water and elongating.
