Planting Time and Depth: Plant tulip bulbs in the fall, several weeks before the ground freezes. The ideal planting depth is about three times the height of the bulb, typically 4-6 inches deep, with the pointed end facing upwards.
Soil and Sunlight: Choose a well-draining soil to prevent bulbs from rotting. Tulips thrive in a location that receives full to partial sunlight. Ensure the area gets at least 6 hours of sun a day for optimal growth. 
Watering: Water the bulbs right after planting to encourage root growth. Once established, tulips require moderate watering, especially during dry spells in the spring. Avoid overwatering as this can lead to bulb rot.
We will add a soil Boost with the order: Apply a balanced, slow-release Boost when planting and again as the leaves emerge in the spring. Avoid high-nitrogen suppliments, as they can encourage leaf growth at the expense of flowers.
Deadheading and Pruning: After blooming, deadhead the tulips by removing the spent flowers. This prevents the plant from expending energy on seed production. However, leave the foliage in place until it turns yellow and dies back naturally, as this helps the bulb store energy for the next year.
Winter Care: In colder climates, mulching over the winter can help protect the bulbs from extreme temperatures. In areas where tulips are not perennial, consider lifting the bulbs after the foliage has died back and storing them in a cool, dry place to replant the following fall.
