Thank you so much for a very informative article. I've done volunteer
work at a botanical garden and you are right about planting blooming
plants when the bulbs stopped blooming.
But I didn't learn a lot about raising tulips. I did bring home dozens of
dug up and discarded bulbs some of which bloomed and many of which
did not. Somewhere along the line I managed to accidentally get a few
species bulbs. They have multiplied wonderfully even tho my care of them
may not have been the best.
