Late autumn is exactly the right time to plant tulips, so don't miss this good window.

Right now is the season for planting tulips. The method is to pot up large bulbs that will bloom the following year, and simply cover them with soil to hold the bulbs in place. Base fertilizer can be mixed into the soil and filled in; there is no need to firm it down. Let the tops of the bulbs be slightly exposed above the soil surface. After watering thoroughly, bury the pot together with the soil. Cover with about 20cm of soil on top. Around early December, dig the pot out, remove the soil on top, and place the pot in a room on the shady side at a room temperature of about 5 degrees C; if the room temperature is too high, nutrient deficiency will occur. Spray water on the leaves to raise air humidity. When buds appear, place it in sunlight at noon. At this time, gradually raise the room temperature and keep it at about 15 to 20 degrees C, so that it will bloom by New Year's Day. If you want it to bloom at Spring Festival, simply postpone digging the potted flower out of the ground until January.
