Growing Tulips and Organic Purple Black Tulip Care!
Growing tulips in a basket garden; and planning ways to enjoy your lovable Tulips is; one of the most enjoyable thing to do in the chilling days! Before the cold and grey winter days arriving each year, almost everyone of us will plan for something specially bright and attractive to decorate our home. Imagine, putting a pot of tulip in the window sill, bright red flowers; or sparkling orange red plant will bring warmth to our house and erasing all our sadness winter nights. If you have ever grown any indoor plants before, you will know how wonderful to watch every plant trying their best to grow into beautiful shapes; with their charming colours; and cheer you with their greatful smiles. Instead of buying potted tulips from those florist like any other year, we have done it differently last year. We have selected four deep purple black tulips to be our indoors special. Planting tulips indoors is simple. You can prepare some flowerpots; or wooden boxes; or baskets; or shallow earthen pots for forcing tulip bulbs partially in a fresh air greenhouse.
Transplanting tulips together with the containers indoors in late winter or early spring. We had them in our sitting room at room temperature 20°C. They came into full bloom within 15 days. The purple black tulips are single late tulips. They are actually in deep purple colour. They will grow gradually from light purple to deep purple and they will turn to black purple colour only when they have received plenty of direct sunlight. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The length of these tulip leaves is 30 cm (about 12 inches) measured from the top of the bulb. Before these long stem tulips going too wild and falling over the container; you can cut them and they will continue growing happily in your elegant vase. You will notice that, the flower petals closed when they are placed in the dark. Their whole flower faded on 15th April; and the flower petals were dropping into pieces. Beware that the purple powder from the flower heart would stain everywhere, if you are not careful. Try growing tulips with healthy bulbs and make your magic days come true! |
