For example, tulips do not like to be planted where other tulips have grown recently, as they quickly deplete the soil of nutrients. Also, if any diseases were in the soil, tulips are susceptible. It could have been tulip fire disease. Did you notice any small brown spots?Janhttp://www.dreamy-flower-garden-ideas.com/growing-tulips.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-75039272543724042472009-03-24T19:10:00.000-05:002009-03-24T19:10:00.000-05:00The same thing happened to me several years ago wi...The same thing happened to me several years ago with some Angelic tulips. I seem to remember trying to find out the problem and discovered that only the early blooming tulips do well this far south. It sometimes gets too hot, too fast for the mid and late blooming ones to do well here. My sister plants early blooming ones, and they do fantastic. After mine did so poorly, I just decided not to do tulips.<BR/><BR/>Jan<BR/>Always GrowingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-53309735392702570892009-03-22T09:59:00.000-05:002009-03-22T09:59:00.000-05:00My tulips are up and blooming--but they forgot to ...My tulips are up and blooming--but they forgot to grow stems! They have full-sized blossoms on these little short stems--it's the strangest thing. I don't know what type they are--I bought what Home Depot had leftover right after Christmas. I don't care if they're annuals in this climate--I love tulips!kim denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755145581029549089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-50694411244000314932009-03-22T04:52:00.000-05:002009-03-22T04:52:00.000-05:00Hi again, Jean :-)Not sure if I can help either as...Hi again, Jean :-)<BR/><BR/>Not sure if I can help either as I am new to growing tulips. I don't know if a virus is responsible so a tricky one to decide what to do. Thank-you for sharing this photo as its always valuable to share the probs as well as the pretty parts of gardening.

I have a few in pots, and each day, a few are gone, with pieces scattered all around. So far, the ones in the ground haven't been bothered. Last year, when they actually got to the flower stage, the squirrels chewed off the flowers!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4547783720122066148.post-37460237462376070742009-03-19T13:04:00.000-05:002009-03-19T13:04:00.000-05:00Oh my...how disappointing and after waiting for tw...Oh my...how disappointing and after waiting for two months!
