MaxineIt is not recommended to plant a tulip bulb in one cubic centimeter of dirt as it may not provide enough space for the bulb to grow and establish roots properly. Tulip bulbs generally require more space and nutrients to thrive. It is best to plant tulip bulbs in a larger area with well-draining soil.

What type of plant grows from a bulb?
Tulip
How deep do you plant a tulip bulb?
Plant tulip bulbs about 6-8 inches deep in well-draining soil. Make sure to plant them with the pointy end facing up to encourage proper growth.
Can you grow a bulb from a cut tulip?
No, you cannot grow a bulb from a cut tulip. Once a tulip is cut, the bulb is no longer viable for growth. If you want to grow tulips, you need to plant bulbs in soil and provide them with proper care.
Can other plants be planted around green tulip leaves or do leaves need go turn yellow before planting around them?
It is not necessary for green tulip leaves to turn yellow before planting other plants around them. You can plant other plants around green tulip leaves as long as they have enough space and access to sunlight. Just be mindful of not overcrowding the tulips to ensure proper growth and health.
Will one tulip bulb produce more than one flower?
Up until now, most tulips produced only one flower per bulb. There are new tulip varieties though that are producing more than one flower on a stem. These are more likely to be found in gardening catalogs rather than in the box store around the corner. Also, bulbs multiply underground and each sends up its own plant with a flower. The resulting clump of tulip plants can fool the eye into thinking there are more than one flower on a stem.
