This year, I seem to have lots of purple and yellow tulips in the garden. The purple ones after missing a year are flowering well, but the yellow ones, I don't remember planting at all....they remain a mystery!

Hi, I am new at growing flowers and have bought several different colors of tulips to plant today. I was wondering if there is a special time of day to plant and water them. Ihave never tried to grow anything before except a rubber plant when I was 24 ( along time ago) and didnt do any good, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks girlies....tulips this year like tree blossoms are doing so well aren't they....:o))
Hi Josiecat, welcome to GoY! Here in the UK, we plant tulips in November to flower April to May, they do need a few months of winter to prepare for spring. Have a look at "planting Tulips in Louisville" and it will give you all the info you need....you may have to store them in the fridge a few weeks before planting in the Autumn (Fall).
