Can you grow a bulb from a cut tulip?

no unfortunatly you cant grow a bulb from a cut tulip or any other bulb flower - you can usually produce multiple bulb offspring from a single bulb planted after its first flowering and all you need to do is dig it up after the flower has finished and you should find that there are a few baby bulbs clinging to the large bulb. now you have multiple bulbs that can be planted out.


Can other plants be planted around green tulip leaves or do leaves need go turn yellow before planting around them?

Yes, you can plant other flowers around tulips when their leaves are still green. Be careful not to dig into the tulip bulb when planting the new flowers. When tulip leaves are yellow and brown and drying, you can give them a small tug and they'll come free from the bulb. Don't remove them while still green - they're making food for the bulb to store for next year's blooms.


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.
