Tulip Bulbs After The Flowers Were Cut Off – Can I Still Plant Them For Blooming
Q: A florist gave me fifty tulip bulbs in soil after they cut the flowers off. Is it possible to plant them for next spring blooming?
A: If you plant the bulbs now you may get some flowers next year but I wouldn’t expect many blooms after that. It’s worth a gamble since the bulbs were free, after all.
