Tulip Picking Tips, and Information
Farms that offer U-pick or pick-your-own tulips are becoming more common. Tulips follow daffodils. So once you see daffodils blooming in your area, expect
the tulips about one month later
-
Once picked, quickly get the stems into water
-
Get them out of the hot sun after picking to increase shelf life. Cool shade is best.
-
Re-cut stems while underwater - once you get home. Making a fresh cut, while the cut end is submerged helps the stem to take up water and avoid a
vapor lock.
