Wow, Such a nice article. please don't stop posting keep it up! I am also a gardener lover and write about
My tulips have now finished flowering. Waiting for leaves to die down I have noticed that four of them have something that looks as if it has a seed pod where the flower was. Is it worth taking them off and planting them ?
You can deadhead tulips after flowering and remove seed pods. Technically, you could grow tulips from seed, however, it’s a lot of work and also most tulips are hybrids so the tulips will not look like the original tulip you grew.
I rec'd tulips from my daughter. My question is. Am I ble to transplant them into the ground? The leaves are starting to fall & stems are getting yellow.
Transplanting bulbs outdoors after blooming can be hit or miss, but it’s worth trying! Get them in the ground as soon as possible and feed them with a bit of fertilizer to encourage growth. The foliage will die back on its own, but if the bulb is able to establish itself, it will come back next spring.
