The primary task facing a flower grower growing tulips is to achieve lush flowering.

Belnovosti online publication expert, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh spoke about the secrets of planting that will help achieve this goal.

As is known, tulips, like other bulbous plants, are usually planted for flowering in the spring from the second half of October.

Before putting the bulbs in the ground, they need to be soaked in the "Maxim" preparation. The treatment will take about 30 minutes.

At this time, you can start digging holes 15-20 cm deep.

Add a little of any potassium-phosphorus fertilizer to the holes, mix it with the soil and water.

Once the moisture has been absorbed, you can begin planting the bulbs. To ensure that the tulips grow in a bunch, the bulbs should be placed in a bunch.

All that remains is to fill the holes with soil and mark the place where the tulips were planted with a pebble.
