Question 1

How should I take care of Tulips?

Accepted Answer

Tulips should be handled gently at all times. If your tulips arrive in a box, take your bouquet  and trim the ends by taking one inch off the bottom of the stems. Remove the plastic sleeve and then place the tulips into a vase that is filled with fresh, cool water. Add floral food as the package directs to. They should be kept in a cool location that is away from direct sunlight.

Question 2

What makes Tulips special?

Accepted Answer

Tulips are one of the most unique flowers because they continue to grow even after they’ve been cut! So, if you notice that your tulip stems are growing taller in your vase—it’s not just in your head, it’s a fact1! Tulips will also follow the sun, so if your flower arrangement is near a window you’ll have to move the vase around every so often to keep the flowers from becoming lopsided. Tulips also come in thousands of varieties  and many different colors, making them even more special. Since tulips typically bloom in the spring, they are popular for spring occasions like Easter and Mother’s Day. Tulips are also a great gift for spring birthdays, anniversaries, congratulations gifts, get well gifts, and more since these cheerful blooms will brighten up anyone’s day!  1: /blog/flower-facts/tulip-facts/fact
