- In this video, Rosanne and her husband plan and plant their front garden with over 250 long-stemmed Dutch tulip bulbs. Using the right tools for the job keeps it fun and makes light work out of an otherwise daunting task. Rosanne also shares design tips for selecting and placing the tulips as well as advice for their care next Spring.
I am so happy that you've just posted this video as I just bought many tulip bulbs and was not sure when or how to plant them. Now I am so pumped to plant them! I also wasn't sure on when to cut the leaves down after they had flowered. I am so thankful for your videos Rosanne! ❤🌷Much love to you!
Linda, I am so happy that your pumped about planting them! Yay! Thanks for watching and commenting. 🌷
Thank you for the tip to plant deeper to deter squirrels. I tried tulips in containers after squirrels found my tulips and it was a fail. I do miss how they looked with my quince in the front yard that seem to bloom at the same time in similar color. How long did it take for the tulips to arrive from Netherland?
Hi! I'm sure your tulips were lovely 🌷. I would definitely try planting deeper. To answer your question, the bulbs were imported from the Netherlands, but I purchased them from a local garden store. They had a pretty good selection, but not as much as other years. When I do order bulbs online, I usually order from John Scheepers.
Thanks for the note!
Thanks for this video. Your yard is gorgeous. 😊😊
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for the wonderful video! I especially appreciated the tip about waiting to cover the bulbs until all were planted so as to see where you've already been. I'm looking forward to a tulip tour in the spring! Have a great weekend!
Hi Heather, Glad you enjoyed the video and the tips! When you plant so many tulips at a time, you definitely can forget what ground you've covered 🤔. Thanks for commenting! 🌷
Hi Roseanne! 😊 Smart gardening. Thank you for always sharing great tips. That auger with drill is the ticket! Steve looking so cute with his smile and hat 😉
Your hair looks nice, lovely lady 🥰
Another gardener I follow planted yellow Tarda tulips I believe. I liked them as they grow 2-4". Don't know about your neck of the woods, but we sure hit a cold snap here, yesterday, last night and throughout this morning. The 🌞 came out thankfully to warm things up. I pulled out my sweats, socks, slippers & hoodie. I'm not ready for any cold snaps, but never really am! How'd I get so misplaced (?) 🤷♀️🙃😄
Nice seeing/hearing from you dear, as always. Happy Fall! 🍃🍁🍂
Hi Gina! Thanks as always for staying in touch. Glad you liked my hubby in this video☺️ . For us, planting tulips is like dancing. It's relaxing and fun. Funny, I was thinking of doing a video on Species Tulips, or wildflower tulips. I grow several varieties - they keep coming back and multiplying. Much more diminutive than the long-stemmed types, but very sweet. One is Tulipa dasystemon tarda (yellow with white edges). Mine grow maybe 6 inches.
Fall is definitely in the air. But, the flowering vines are still growing strong.
Happy Fall to you too.
@@RosannesGarden Cheers on flowering vines! 😉 Yes, the Tarda you mentioned. Yours would grow to 6" with all that fertile ground you've sown!
Thanks Aunt Rosan and Uncle Steve... very helpful... I might plant some bulbs this October...
You are so very welcome!! I hope you do plant bulbs this fall...the reward the following spring is so worth it! Plus, your neighbors will thank you ;-)
🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
Love your video’s so awesome is your garden!!!!
Thank you so much! ☺️🌷🌿
I've never had much luck with tulips coming back each year. I don't think it gets cold enough here.
They do need cold temperatures. But, mine only last 2 or three years too.
Great video on how you get such a beautiful show along your front walk in springtime.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting!
The video is just in time. I just want to plant tulips.
Yay! So glad to hear it! 🌷
Love your Garden!! Where do you purchase your tulips from and is the company highly rated.
Thanks! This year we purchased our tulips from a local garden center - Bachman's, in Minneapolis. When I do order through the mail, I normally use John Scheepers.
www.johnscheepers.com/
I don't know if they are highly rated, but I tend to get consistently good product from them. Plus, they have some more unusual offerings.
Happy hunting!
@@RosannesGarden Thank you, I was just there last week picking up some lilies and coneflowers. I will head back and check them out for tulips ;-)
Do you have a company you prefer for buying bulbs? I have wasted time on the cheap ones from Lowes and they didn't do very well. I don't mind spending a little more money for bulbs that will perform better for me 👍
Hi, I normally buy from a local garden center (Bachman's), but if I do buy from a catalog, it would probably be John Scheepers/Van Engelen. Here's a link:
www.johnscheepers.com/flower-bulbs-index/tulips.html
Good luck!
@@RosannesGarden Thank you! Good to know, I'll look at those places online because I'm in Virginia, and we don't have that store 😄👍
I was wondering if you have to dig up the previous years bulbs before you plant the new bulbs? Other than that, great video.
Thanks. No, I don't dig up old bulbs. I do keep track of tulip clusters that still put on a good show in the spring. We don't plant new tulip bulbs in that spot. But if a cluster is less than 1/2 of what it was the first year, our experience tells us that it will barely flower the 3rd year and we simply drill the ground as though there are no bulbs. We do hit some bulbs with the drill, but they are likely duds.
So enjoyed your video and tips. I planted about 30 tulips last year and they looked nice but very spaced out, so this spring I order so many more for fall planting this year. Have you found one variety that you liked best? I ordered 15 types this time to try a bunch. Thanks again for sharing you passion and knowledge.
Hi Winnie! I'm so glad you've got the bug to plant more tulips! I really don't have a favorite long-stemmed tulip variety. We mostly buy our bulbs from a local garden center and buy according to color and flower type (single classic, double, fringed, etc.). For over ten years, we did had a solid red tulip border, rather than an array of color. Those were Darwin Hybrid Apeldoorn. So large and beautiful. They have a reputation of being more "perennial", and I think they did last a little longer, maybe one year.
Happy Planting! 🌷
What a great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You’re my absolute favorite!! You’ve given me so much inspiration and I am so thankful for your videos.
Oh, that is so sweet of you to say. I am so pleased to hear that! Thanks so much for that kind feedback. Happy gardening! 🌷🌿☺️
Thank you, nice tips, I have never planted tulips. Maybe next year.
Thank you Tammy. Glad you enjoyed it! 🌷
Great video, thanks for sharing your garden knowledge with us. What a great hubby out there helping. Enjoy your display
Thanks Stacey! We love sharing our garden and garden tips! You are right - I am so fortunate to have such a great garden partner.
Thank you so much for this video. I like the tulips and hosta combination. Lots of tips in here I could use. I love all your videos, you’re very pleasant to listen to.
Thank you! I'm so glad you are enjoying my channel. It's always nice to hear! ☺️
Great video. Thank you. What type of drill is it? Can you provide more details on the drill and the auger?
Thanks! We replaced our old auger (20 years old!) with a new one this year. I've seen them in local nurseries, but here's a link to the one we bought:
www.tulipworld.com/flower-bulb-hex-drill-planter-large.aspx?_vsrefdom=adwords&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkbuKBhDRARIsAALysV42hmFteAqN61PGj1XBZSTmAAM_KFljwzgI0q77TJHQR4ehrQGIuUAaAvvMEALw_wcB
The description says the auger will fit any electric or cordless drill. Here's a great link to a short article on drills with links to Amazon. My husband's drill is a Milwaukee brand and it is "1/2". It is battery operated and is quite powerful.

Hope that helps!
@@RosannesGarden thank you Rosanne. This helps a lot
Always enjoy your videos. I don't do nulbs 🙁 9b zone but I love them. Thank you again, Rosanne.
Thanks Beth. So glad to hear you're enjoying my channel! ☺️ Too bad about the Tulips, but I'm sure you have a multitude of gorgeous flowers that we don't! 🌹
@@RosannesGarden Well in the Sonoran Desert (Carefree, AZ) so the usual native flowering shrubs. Lots of yellows, oranges (lantana, Mexican bird of paradise, cape honeysuckle), sages.
They are rugged and can withstand the 110-115 heat. Some flowering patio plants that can be shaded. I do have a large (nearly an acre) desert landscape of huge native cacti (saguaro, Mexican fench post, yellow barrels, giant Argentines, desert spoons and yucca, agaves galore, euphorbias and sego palms do well, if shaded. It's a far cry from my Kansas landscape. As I've mentioned before, your garden feeds my soul.
I always enjoy a visit to Roseanne's enchanting garden.
Hi Heather! Thank you! That is very sweet of you to say 🌷☺️🌿
This was a great video. I am going to plant Tulips now. Very happy I found your post. Thank you :)
Glad it was helpful! I'm so happy you found my channel too!
I'm quite inspired to grow even tulips this season 😊. Thanks. New Sub, new gardening friend🌹🌿🌿
Yay! Greetings to a new subscriber and fellow gardener! 😍 I hope you do plant tulips this fall. You'll be glad come spring! 🌷🌿🌷
I look forward to seeing them bloom. I have my fall bulbs ready to plant. Happy fall!
Thanks! I'm excited to see them too. So nice to look forward to. Happy planting! 🌷🌷🌷
Thanks for the ideas and the reminders. WHAT IS THE POWER )voltage?) OF THE DRILL?
Glad you found the video helpful. Great question. The drill is 18 V.
Rosanne, I enjoy all your videos and take much inspiration from them. Regarding the tulips, you share that you plant new bulbs every couple of years because tulips eventually lose their vigor. So when you do a tulip plot refresh and plant new bulbs, do you ever actually dig up the old ones? Or do you sometimes find tulips from older bulbs pop up anyway and intrude on your new color schemes? Thanks for all that you share!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad that you are enjoying my channel. I must also apologize for not responding earlier, as I did not see your comment until today, you would think I would have the hang of RUclips by now 🤔.
Regarding your question about tulips, we do not ever dig all the bulbs out. Sometimes we will hit an old bulb with the auger as we plant new ones, but that’s it. I do get old leaves popping up, but almost never flowers that would disrupt my color scheme. Plus, my color scheme is rather loose. So if a volunteer from a previous year, decides to bloom, so be it.
Thank you again for watching and commenting. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
So what varieties / types of tulips do not stop blooming over the years and do not need to be replanted, in your experience?
Hi! Great question. I'm thinking of also doing a video on species tulips, or wildflower tulips. I have been growing one patch for many years now and it keeps getting larger. I have others, but the oldest and largest patch is Tulipa dasystemon. There are others such as Tulipa Little Beauty and Tulip battalinii Bright Gem. They are shorter stemmed with smaller blooms. Really cute.
@@RosannesGardenJust the same from my experience: species are more reliable and durable than varieties. Have you got our northernmost tulips: Biebersteiniana and Schrenkii?
@@RosannesGarden ruclips.net/video/Dd3xYOR5OPU/видео.html
@@rusmoscow1971 I couldn't fine either Biebersteiniana and Schrenkii in my bulb catalogs, but I did look them up online. The T. Biebersteiniana reminds me of the T. dasystemon. Love the red of the Schrenkii. Now I'll keep a lookout for them!
@@RosannesGarden ruclips.net/video/sAKjmoA8cjE/видео.html
I live in Belgium , planting these days many tulips underneath trees ( about 400)
I use a bulp planter.
I have clay soil.
Have a bucket with leafmold, coco peat, riversand and compost mixture to improve the growing conditions.
I wait till november, december ...tulips like it cold and if its too mild in fall they could have tulip fire ( and other deseases).
That s how I do it.
I overplant with pansies and add a thin layer of mulch.
In the Netherlands threy grow on sandy soil covered with straw as mulch.
I saw that once up on a time.
Whish you a spring full of tulip abundance.
Kind regards,
Marcus
Thank you Marcus. 400 tulips should be so beautiful! It goes to show that tulip planting, like other aspects of gardening, can vary so much depending on your climate. I like to get our bulbs in the ground about six weeks before the ground freezes. Last year, we had the second coldest recorded October in history. We also had a snow storm with over 9 inches of snow on October 20. Ahh, Mother Nature. Have a wonderful tulip display!
Hi, I live in zone 5 and I notice that red tulips does much better than the others more fancy varieties. Mine are coming out strongly 5 years straight and I didn’t fertilizer it. I add some homemade compost. Just want to let you know that you a lucky lady to have gardeners husband! Never came to mind when I meet my husband 15 years ago that I would like this…but i am still fortunate that my 9 years old son love to gardening with me ! The more I teach him, the more he enjoy a beautiful garden.
Greetings! You must have the magic touch with tulips! Gardening with a partner is fun, especially when you each find things you like to do. My husband loves doing stonework, which is very good for me (and the garden)! Teaching children, or exposing them to gardening is a great gift. I'm sure your son is very grateful for your inspiration.
I'm in love with your garden!! Clearly you put so much effort and love in it!
I live in zone6 is now( February) too late to plant tulips?
Thank you!
Thank you! So glad you are enjoying the videos! Great question about the tulips, but I really do not know the answer for your zone. The bulbs definitely need to be exposed to cold for a while, so I'd consult a garden center or nursery in your area that might carry bulbs. They would be a better resource. Good luck! 🌹
I’m excited to see your tulips in the spring!!!. Please don’t forget to show us. Also, during the summer, do plant some annual where you have tulip? What do you with that area where you plant tulips?
Hi, I sure hope to do a spring garden tour video this year, so stay tuned 🙂. In most cases, I plant Hosta and tulips together. The Hosta leaves are small when the tulips are blooming, but then the leaves grow large and eventually cover up where the tulips once grew. I also do plant small bedding plants in between the tulips, as the tulips are fading, and also Calla Lily bulbs. Small bedding plants and bulbs fit nicely in between the tulip stems.
I liked the idea of planting close to the hostas so the hosta leaves, at their fullest, drape over and cover the yellowing tulip leaves. I am also fascinated with the single bulb tool. I normally plant in small patches with the trowel but occasionally want a standalone just for flare and intentional chaos. This would be an ideal tool to make light work of such a creation.
Greetings fellow gardener! Sorry for my delayed response. I'm glad you agree on the hosta - it just seems like such a good pairing with tulips. Please do try the bulb auger; it's a great tool and has made planting tulips deep quite easy. Plus, as you suggest, it's perfect for individual blooms. I like your idea of "flare and chaos". Nice.
Your going to enjoy a beautiful show in spring! Love your videos💚 . You make a great team.
Thank you! I think so too! I am indeed fortunate to have such a great garden partner! 🌷
I live in middle Tennessee. My tulip bulbs are in the refrigerator, can and when should I plant them in the early spring or should I go ahead and plant them now, it's early January?
Greetings to Tennessee! I don't think you can go too wrong either way. I'm not really familiar with how your spring evolves, but I'd lean toward getting them in the ground now. Good luck!
im so glad I can see someone from the same city here , very helpful to a new gardener :)
Greetings neighbor! Welcome to Rosanne's Garden! 🌷🌿🌹
Amizing So beautiful Garden God bless you po Watching here From Philippines
Greetings to the Philippines! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 🌷
@@RosannesGarden welcome Po ma'am
Great instruction!!! Thank you
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I have a question is too late to plant tulips?
Hi, great question. It really depends on where you live. Here, in Minnesota, we are under a blanket of snow and it is too late. As long as you have a few months of cold temperatures (tulips need cold to bloom) and are able to plant them, they should bloom.
Oh, thank you so much !! Exactly what I need right now. Very straightforward and informative !! Thank you , thank you !!🤩🥰
Thank you Nelida! Glad it was helpful!! 🌷🌿☺️
Hi Roseann! Love your garden, but don’t you have issues with rabbits? I’m in SE WI and they will decimate them here.
Greetings to or neighboring state! We do have a lot of rabbits and for many plants, we keep up (green coated) chicken wire all summer long. We also use 4 foot wire in the winter around our shrubs and many trees. All that said, we'll probably only lose about six to ten flowers to the rabbits. Last year, the rabbits only chewed on one fancy type tulip, with purple markings in its leaves. We did put up wire around the cluster when we saw what was going on. It is frustrating to see that they just chewed off the stem and left the beautiful flower just lying there. Argh.
Such is gardening. 🌷🌿🌹
Thank you very much for the video. Your garden it's wonderful 😁
Thank you Alberto! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! 🌷
I miss you Mam Rosannes ❤️
Hi! Thanks for the sentiment. I appreciate that you look forward to my videos. I hope to publish one within the week on using natural stone hardscape in one's garden design. Stay tuned ;-)
Thanks for the very helpful video! I headed to Bachmans to pick up 200 yellow tulips! Now that they are planted I will have something to look forward during the cold winter. Thanks for all your hard work on making these great videos!
Yay! It should be gorgeous! Let's hope we have a perfect spring for the blooms. Glad you are enjoying my channel. It's fun to make videos, but as you may have realized, I don't do that many (at least compared to other gardening channels). I admire their energy!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a beautiful and informative tulip video! I bought 379 tulip bulbs recently and will try out to combine some of them with wonderful green hosta. Great idea! I read that most tulip bulbs need a dry period in summer, so if they are planted in a bed which will be watered during summer, it is good to take them out before summer and plant them again in fall. It is also possible to plant them in pots, so that they can stand at a dry place in summer. Thank you for your video, Roseanne! And it was nice to finally see your kind husband. Wish you both a great garden time! Love from Austria!
Greetings to Austria! 379 is ambitious! I hope you have help 😉. Glad to hear you are trying the Hosta combo idea. Hope you like it. Our tulips definitely are in a bed that gets watered regularly. But, because of the way we have them planted deep and among the Hosta, I don't think we'd ever dig them up. But, thanks for sharing that piece of information. I hadn't heard it.
Thank you Mario for visiting again and sending your kind words this way. 🌷
You've inspired me to go buy some bulbs for the spring. I haven't thought that far ahead yet.
You're lucky to have a hubby that will help you in the garden. 💕
Yay! I'm happy to hear that you were inspired to plant some tulips. It's probably just the right time in Zone 5. It's just so rewarding come Spring. And, I am indeed lucky to have such a great gardening partner! He sort of nudged me in that direction some 30 years ago with the gift of a Daylily bed 💝.
Love your garden, love your plant combination and love the way you work with your husband!
Thank you so much! It is fun to have such a great partner in gardening!
What a wonderful tulips garden! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for visiting!
Perfect 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers! 🌷
So beautiful!
Thank you! 🌷
Missed your videos Rosanne! Glad you are looking healthy and so pretty
Ohhh, that is so sweet. I'm feeling pretty well too. 😊🍂
This video is catching me at the perfect time, we are going to plant our first tulips this year. Can't wait for spring!
Yay! So glad to hear it. Next spring should be glorious. After that, you'll be hooked 🌷 😉.
Great video, Rosanne! Thank you! Here in SE Australia, we plant our tulips quite deep (4-5 times the height of each bulb) to keep them cool through our hot summer months. We also feed generously with blood and bone, at least twice, from flowering time through to leaves yellowing. We ALWAYS clip off the spent flower heads right after petal drop, before seeds start to develop (which significantly weakens the bulb at the expense of flowers in the following Spring). These all combine to help the bulbs behave as a perennial - you should get up to 10 years or more from your tulip bulbs. See Sarah Raven's RUclips videos on growing tulips as a perennial - there are types that are much easier to keep going from year to year and will even form large clumps!
Thanks! And greetings to SE Australia! Great tips! 🌷🌿☺️ I'd love for the tulips to give me more seasons!
Super
Thanks!
Great tips!

Beautiful garden 😍
Thanks for visiting
It takes 2 to tango. It's always nice when a couple share the same hobbies. Mine is different in everything :-(
So true! Planting tulips for us is like dancing! I am so fortunate that my husband shares in my passion for gardening.
So is mine and it makes life difficult in so many ways, but on the upside it's helped me grow in my appreciation of others who ARE different from me and helped me understand others who THINK different than me. God has a purpose for everything in our lives...the good and the "bad". We just need to be open to it.
