First time tulip planter.??

I'm a first timer for tulips. I understand that i need to take them out of the ground during summer then re-plant them again in sept.. Now my question is when do i pull them out of the ground and do what with them? Then already lost thier flower

You have to wait till after they bloom of course , then when the leaves are completely brown , use a gardening fork to raise them gently , rinse remaining dirt off %26amp; let them dry completely , then store them in a cool dry place till Autumn

Where do you live?





You dig the bulbs up and put them in a shady, cool area preferably in a brown paper bag, not too crowded tho!


Then put them back in the ground this fall like you stated.





Have Fun Green Thumb!!!!





p.s. wait until the green leaves turn brown.
Reply:in the fall you can take them out
Reply:I live in michigan, i never pull mine out ...they stay in the ground year after year ...and always bloom beautifully
