For the past ten years, we've had the good fortune of ordering thousands of bulbs from A.D.R. each fall to help further beautify Newport, RI. Not only is the quality of the bulbs outstanding, so is their customer service and attention to detail.

Planting: Plant in fall once soil temperatures fall below 55°F. Set bulbs 6–8 inches deep, pointed end up. Viridiflora tulips perform best in sites where their late bloom time and subtle green hues can be appreciated up close.
Spacing: Space bulbs 4–6 inches apart. For visual impact, cluster in groups of 10 or more—their distinctive coloring and upright posture stand out in mixed plantings.
Light: Full sun is preferred to bring out the clarity and contrast of the green markings. Light shade is tolerated but may soften bloom coloration.
Soil: Use well-drained, neutral to slightly acidic soil (pH 6–7). Soggy or compacted areas can cause rot—ensure drainage is reliable through spring rains.
Watering: Water after planting to settle the bulbs. During spring, water only if dry conditions persist—overwatering may reduce bloom quality.
Temperature & Dormancy: Requires 12–16 weeks of cold (below 50°F) to establish strong root systems and prepare for flowering.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced bulb fertilizer at planting and again in spring as foliage emerges. This supports the structural strength and longevity of the blooms.
Pests: Generally resilient. Use mulch or mesh to deter squirrels. Deer will eat buds and emerging foliage—especially in early spring—so use repellents or fencing in high-pressure areas.
Disease: To prevent Botrytis (Tulip Fire), plant only healthy, firm bulbs in sunny, well-ventilated areas. Avoid overhead watering and dispose of any infected material—do not compost. Rotate planting sites annually and avoid replanting in affected areas for at least three years.
