Tulipa

Planted my first ever #bulbs today. Question - will they grow through the pebbles? I thought it’d look nicer while waiting til spring 😂🌷 #tulips #tulip-advice #containergarden #autumn #fall #pebbles #advice

I would say grit not pebbles @abbeyj 👍

Thank you! @suerichards @cyndi I’ll have a look into getting some grit instead. 👌

I love tulips. I had some in pots about six I think. I eventually plant them out with pups. I think about 30 if them. I was looking forward to have a gorgeous display of colour but only two if them came up. What did I do wrong? 😥

@gardenfiend aw! I’m hoping all three bulbs come up from this pot but who knows 😅 I’m still learning, these are the first bulbs I’ve planted. I’m looking forward to some spring colour if they do 😊

If anyone out there could advise me on growing tulips 🌷 I’d be everso grateful they look so gorgeous. Maybe my garden bed was wrong. I don’t know what I did but hope I didn’t kill my bulbs 😟🤭

@cyndi @PunkyKy @suerichards @brightcolours might have some tips for you @gardenfiend, or know of others who will! I also find YouTube videos very helpful. I followed one while I was potting up mine. Fingers crossed they show in spring.

Thank you for that. I don’t know I#why I didn’t even think of YouTube. I google just about everything else. Will check it. Thanx again will keep you posted if I have success this year

Erika, do you live in a cold close mate? Tulips need a cold spell to flower. @gardenfiend

Love those pebbles! The nursery near our home has got white marble stones but not these.
