    I first bought them to force in pots and was successful. Moved them to the ground and had blooming every year (several years) in my Maryland garden. I give no special care, but they are in a west facing bed with an overhang which tends to keep the area on the dry side in summer; I have read that helps tulips. This year, only a few blooms, my luck may have run out.
    2022 sure enough, I had zero bloom this year. But they had a good run.
