Tulpanpaket - Pastel Promise

You can plant your tulip bulbs from September up until about a week before the ground freezes. Bulbs do best when planted as soon as you receive them, but if that’s not possible, we recommend storing them in a cool, dark, and dry place. Tulips prefer well-drained soil. Planting in pots is also perfectly fine—just make sure to use a frost-resistant pot with drainage holes. To prevent the bulbs from freezing during winter, place the pot in a sheltered spot and cover it with insulating material.

For a tulip bulb to start growing, it needs a continuous cold period (below 9°C), which is why we plant them in autumn. When spring arrives and the soil warms up, the tulips begin to sprout. Most varieties bloom beautifully in April to May.
