How to Make tulips come back year after year

  • So many ask me about how to make tulips come back year after year. There are few things about aftercare I will share wit you in this video.
    First of all, you need to deadhead - remove the seed heads once the blooms have faded. And then allow the stems and foliage to die back naturally.
    One more very important thing is to plant the bulbs in a sunny spot (in the autumn), so they will be ‘baked’ during the summer.
    In this video I’m also showing how I have planted the bulbs between perennials, which is hiding the withering stems and foliage.
    My name is Claus Dalby, and I live in Risskov on the outskirts of Aarhus in Denmark. To date, I have written about 30 books on flowers and gardens in Danish, and my garden has been featured on many TV shows. In March 2022 my first book in English will be available. I consider my home (built in1908), and its garden with its neighboring wood, as my sanctuary. When I started gardening in 1996, there was just a large lawn covering approximately 1 acre (4,000 square meters), but today the grass is long gone - replaced by 15 hedged rooms with varying colors and moods. Additionally, one of my great passions is growing in pots, arranged to create spectacular container gardens, which I will share quite a bit about on this channel. Decor and creating moods have always interested me - both outside and inside - and I love to use the flowers from my garden for bouquets and to inspire other crafts that create a sense of hygge.

    Claus, NEVER knew you had to deadhead tulips and daffodils. I'll definitely do that from now on. Beautiful garden. Thanks for your channel.

      I know...I normally actually do, but this year, with the tulips, I thought I'd like to see what the seed head look like. Oops. I suppose I'll go cut them now, but it's maybe too late? Mine (Connecticut, US) have been finish for about three weeks.

      @@nspector I’m in central Indiana, and even if you deadhead tulips you get spotty blooming next year if any at all. I’m resigned to ripping them out and replanting every Fall. By contrast, I have so many daffodils it’s impossible to deadhead them. For over 20 years they have come back and bloom very well.

      @@ransomcoates546 Yes, my tulips were second year this season, and fewer and smaller than last year, but still an ok show. By next year I figure there will be very few. My daffodils actually never naturalized, and, though they came back for many years, they were fewer and fewer, and now there are almost none. But it's only this year that I truly have full full sun (took down a couple of trees), so I may try again.

      Hi, can I ask you, is the CC something the video maker can have RUclips do automatically (and sometimes poorly), or do you mean proper captioning that a person would transcribe? I'm asking because I don't see a CC option on this video and am wondering why it is not automatic. Thanks.

    I was sitting here with a blanket watching this video again and you made me get up and go outside into the freezing cold to deadhead just one umm, not daffodil but the other narcississ, can't think of the name right now. That flower stem came up early and is finished. I only have a small clump in the ground with several new flowers on it at the moment. So thank you so much for the tip x
    PS. Deadheading is a pleasure for me too and I have nothing else to deadhead. I go out and deadhead every morning and usually 3 times a day. The possums do a lot aliveheading for me. I'm hoping for the plants to bush up and not be totally destroyed. I love having the possums visit but they cost me a fortune in replacement seedlings. They love the berries in winter on the neighbours trees planted very close to the adjoining fence. Actually, they are planted between the fence and their medium sized shed so I actually get all the benefits from them. I have been feeding the possums certified organic apples, minus the seeds which I eat for the vitamin B17, as well as certified organic Brazil Nuts which I eat for the Selenium.
    I watched your Instagram livestream earlier. Am looking forward to seeing the garden of that man and Rob. I am following them now. They had beautiful photos up, then I realised that they were of your beautiful home and garden x
