    I was sooo excited to see a video from you. I've officially hit "overwhelmed" for this year in the garden. (May have gone overboard on lisianthus) I really needed some Jessie in my world today.
    This video is awesome. One of my favorites so far!! I mean, Flower Farm Money will always be my favorite, but this is right up there.
    Your genuine way you video is THE BEST. I gigged so hard with your spider situation. 😂😂
    My tulips are just coming up. I'm hoping by mothers day I'll have a bunch to sell.
    Hope your market was successful, and I'm so stoked your are sticking yo your guns about spending!! Way to be creative!!!

    Interesting, I live in growing zone 8b near Seattle and I planted my tulips in October or November I think it was, but they are stunning in April! They come out 3 years in a row. I have red and yellow striped tulips and I bought some dark purple ones that I planted in early spring, they were gorgeous. However, I plan to buy more tulips this fall and I might plant those in December....want Fox Trot variety next. Our soil is so dark and fertile with tons of worms. I planted mine on the side of my driveway along with irires. I got some iris cuttings from our local botanical garden fall sale and they all came up the next spring in purple and yellow. I didn't know what color they'd even be....I love the surprise!

    • @45jessiemad
      @45jessiemad  6 місяців тому

    Hi Jessie ! Nice to see you again ! Just a little question : won’t the tulips rehydrate better with the bulbs attached ?

    • @45jessiemad
      @45jessiemad  Рік тому +2

      Honestly, never heard of that, or seen it done. May have to give it a try next year.

    • @coloradotulips
      @coloradotulips Рік тому +2

      Hello - I’ve done a little research on this since it’s a great question! Of the popular bulb-grown cut flowers, it’s only hyacinths that require the basal plate (bottom of bulb from which roots emerge) to absorb water. If you want a nice vase life from a hyacinth, you pull the entire bulb and trim just the sides of the bulb match the stem width so it’s less bulky in the vase. For tulips, harvesting with bulb on helps the flower to keep absorbing the bulb’s carbohydrates and minimize hydration loss during storage. The bulb doesn’t aid rehydration (and can contribute more fungus/bacteria to the water being absorbed). Plus, the exposed roots are basically being air-pruned and dying off during storage.

    When do you move your containers out of the garage? Do you wait until you see growth? Last year all my bulbs rotted, so I planted them and placed them it the garage this year and watered occasionally.

    • @45jessiemad
      @45jessiemad  Рік тому +2

      They will not produce more tulips after cutting the bulbs off. Plus, in my zone tulips do not come back every year. To have them come back I'd have to leave enough leaves for the bulb to store food, and then dig up the bulbs and store them for the year. It's easier to buy new every year. :)

    Can you get pre-chilled from the seller you suggested ?

    • @45jessiemad
      @45jessiemad  11 місяців тому +1

      Wholesale for the small scale grower does not sell prechilled bulbs as of last year. Not sure if they'll offer that now or not. I do know that with some wholesalers you can order prechilled bulbs but your selection is limited and you'll pay more overall.

      oh no!! If they haven't started coming up by now then I would be worried. Did you chill them before placing them in the ground, and did they have plenty of drainage? You can always dig one up and see if it's good.

      Nikki I'm not sure since I've never dealt with that on tulips. I would think you'd have to place them in soil and let them get some water and nutrients to survive. Maybe a good question to ask the gardeners workshop. 🙂

    Tulips in cold room did not get time in cold. It is not that easy. Just use prechill tulips. Tulips need to have more than just time in cold to work. They need water too to work. Tulips not get chill time in dry cold.

      The bulbs are no good after harvesting them. We cut then low as we can to get long stems.
