- Here are 10 tulips that I love and 3 you couldn't pay me to grow again.
Must grow tulips -
Negrita Double
Black Hero
La Belle Epoque
Silver Parrot
Queen of Night
Amazing Parrot
Exotic Emperor
Apricot Delight
Finola
More tulips I've grown that are good for the garden and good for cutting -
White Parrot
White Emperor
Green Spirit - Great For Selling. Very strong neck.
Dordogne
Infinity - Blooms Early. Nice color.
Purple Flag - Comes back reliably.
Purple Dream - Better in the garden than in the vase. Floppy.
Mystic Van Eijk
Foxy Foxtrot
Black Parrot *This one was beautiful but it did bloom very late and toppled in the rain*
Flaming Flag - GREAT for selling
Elegant Lady - Best for the garden. Tall. Blooms late. Okay as a cut flower.
Tulips that have given me trouble:
Antoinette
Yellow Pomponette
Charming Beauty
also
Blue Spectacle - petals easily damaged by rain.
Averyon and Amazing Grace - both bloom late, short, some issues with too much rain. Could have been my fault.
Yes! More videos on bulbs! ❤
yes PLEASE do videos on daffodils and alliums!! I cannot plant tulips because of the squirrels in my yard. So I plan to deck it out with daffodils and alliums and would love to know your suggestions.
Maybe you could put hardware cloth over the bulbs?
I know a lot of people find them cute, but they are just rats in fur coats. They are so destructive.
@@firehorsewoman414 Well, I do think they’re cute, but that doesn’t outweigh the mayhem they cause!
I have opted to grow on daffodils and jonquils, which perform better in the south. Tulips do not reliably come up and bloom in my coastal 8a climate. The aggravating squirrels don't help matters either.
Thank you! It would be so helpful to make a video of one of your beautiful arrangements and the bulbs needed to make it.
Because of your great videos I’ve planted my second year of cool weather flower seeds. I got Lisa Mason Ziegler’s book u recommend on cool flowers from the library, I found it so helpful I bought it. I plan to plant some of your recommended bulbs as well!
Thank you!
Danielle, Thank you for reminding me to order now! I am also interested in ordering alliums and ranunculus and would love to know your preferences for these. As always, many thanks!
Yes, Danielle I would also like to see your comparison/opinion on alliums. I grow 6 varieties and want to add more. Besides being beautiful, the deer leave them alone, except for very early in March when they nibble the leaves. That doesn't seem to affect the flowers later, though.
Would love to see videos on how you make your flower arrangements. They are so beautiful! Thanks!!
Please put together a video on Daffodil bulbs. Interested to know your thoughts on which perform the best!
Ditto that for me too. As much as I LOVE tulips - I just can't do it anymore due to the squirrels. Daffodils coming next spring!
Thank you for this list. I’d love one for daffodils. Deer pressure in my yard is heavy so I depend on the daffodils.
Thank you for your list! I have yellow pomponette and I don’t think that I have ever cut it. I call it my emotional support tulip because the bright colour is such a happy sight to see after winter. My favourites for cutting are the Van Eijk series. They are large, tall, sturdy and easy to use together or with other types of flowers. They also have a remarkable vase life.
Negrita double, Black Hero, La Belle Epoque, Silver Parrot, Blushing Lady, Amazing Parrot, Queen of Night, Exotic Emperor, Apricot Delight (early), Finola.
Perfect timing! I’ve decided to add more tulips to my garden and was just making my selections. I’m in a similar climate as you and this information is invaluable. Thank you.
Absolutely, more videos! My dad always used to say, pay attention. No sense us both making the same mistake! Thank you so much!
I grew Charming Beauty this year and it was one of my favorites! We did have a fairly dry spring so maybe that’s why I didn’t have any disease issues, but will see what happens next year!
I always enjoy your videos and learn so much. At the end of this one where you are walking between the borders, it is truly a paradise!
Alliums, anemones, iris's, ranunculus please!
Your so blessed to be able to grow those beautiful tulips. I live in the Deep South we can’t grow them here. Love your channel. Your so great at gardening and designing your gardens. God Bless you and yours!
Hi Danielle, Thanks for that wonderful video about tulip bulbs you always have the best info and I'm looking forward to more bulb tutorials. Unfortunately up here in Connecticut the deer love my tulips so I can't grow them but I admire the ones you have shown us on your videos. 😍
Hyacinths are gorgeous as landscape bulb and are poisonous to deer - really terrific with deer pressure. Dutch iris are also nicely “resistant” and bloom with the late tulips or even afterwards. Wishing you much success!
Hi Danielle. I grew Charming Beauty and did not have the issues that you did, but they didn't return. I thought the stems were on the shorter side too. For me, the blooms were so glorious - in the garden. I didn't cut them. But so sad they never came back. Wouldn't purchase again for that reason. Thanks for the recommendations!
Thank you Danielle for all the great info. Maybe I will try some in my frig this year. No frost here in 10 a. 😕
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and opinions. I got a beautiful blend last year. I am not sure of all the names but it was fabulous! These are just for me so I look for quality and affordability.
This was helpful.
Beautiful video! Yes, create more bulb videos, like daffodils, and lilies.
Great video with such good information. It is always great to hear a person's personal experience. More videos like this would be greatly appreciated. Also, those arrangements were stunning! A video on how you did those and/or just pictures of those arrangements would be wonderful. I could see a coffee table book with those. I would certainly buy it!
Great list of bulbs, I think everyone would watch you in hour long bulb videos!!!! 🌷🌷🌷
Love the purple ones and the white one!!!
Danielle try making a small slit at the top of the tulip and that will prevent it from stretching or growing once in a vase.
This was extremely helpful to see!! I’m very hopeful that you’ll do other videos on bulbs that you have experienced growing. I find all your videos so informative and I really your calm, charming delivery. Your flower arrangements are fabulous, and as a painter, I find them really inspirational. Thank you.
Lovely list. In my mountain climate, though a zone 8, I have a terrible time growing tulips. We get late snows that typically smash them into smithereens so I am relegated to only growing them in pots so I can put them on the covered porch when late bad weather threatens. I should order some of the more dramatic colors and give them a try and see how they will do in containers. Every year I claim I am giving up on tulips but most of the time I relent and try, try again.
Fellow bulb lover here - consider hyacinths! More compact and so great at standing up to snow, fragrant, gorgeous, for landscape (to use as cut flower you must keep bulb on with bottom base intact).
I had Amazing and Silver Parrott in my garden this spring and they are truly amazing! I had Exotic Emperor the year before and was not as enthousiastic as you. I fell in love this year wit the white Swan Wings. Its a white with a frisseled edge. That was wonderful. I had Finola too this spring and thats indeed a wonderful pink tulip but not so high as some others. I grew Charming Lady this years . Looks almost the same as Charming Beauty but more of a soft yellow and peach and that was gorgeous but the stems are not that long.
Can you show us how to save or lay a seeds please? I cannot wait to try a couple of your favorite tulips😃👏
Thank you for being so thorough!❤
Any tulips you recommend for planters?
Hi Pam! I don't have alot of experience growing tulips in plants, but Exotic Emperor did well in pots. Perhaps Sarah Raven has information on this. She grows lots of tulips in pots.
Another yes for more bulb videos 😊
I’ve grown several hundred Aveyron at a time in Nashville, TN (7a). They did very well here as a garden tulip.
Several hundreds? Impressive. How do you keep critters from digging them up? I’m in GA.
Of course we want more bulb videos!! Thank you!!
I plant my tulips in a trench with gravel and hardware cloth to deter squirrels from digging up my bulbs. What do you do?
That's a great idea! I have tried chicken wire on top of the planting area with decent results.
How do you keep squirrels from eating your bulbs love all your videos and beautiful flower arrangements
❤
You can place chicken wire on top of the beds and weigh the wire down with bricks. I've also heard some people have good luck piling rose clippings on top of the planting area. The thorns act as a deterrent.
Yes to a list of daffodils and alliums. I haven’t bought tulips because I’m focused on daffodils which return reliably.
I love this list and definitely helpful. Thank you so much!
I had problems with Charming Beauty as well, and I had great success with foxy foxtrot, and foxtrot. I've also had problems with Renown Unique.
Love these videos so much!!! You have taught me so much!! Your enthusiasm is just contagious!!
Daffodil video, please. Do your amaryllis ever bloom in summer. 3 of mine are starting to bloom. Not sure about putting in hibernation in a few weeks as blooms fade or wait.
Hi friend! I had one bloom in early summer! I'll ask my friend who has alot more experience than me and see what she says about dormancy on a late summer bloomer.
$1 bulbs! My lowes just goes down to 50% off... I'll take it
Same my stores only do 50% off! I would probably go crazy if I could get them for $1 lol
Definitely more videos in bulbs, but will gladly listen to whatever garden topic you put forth. Hi Grace!
Thank you for reviewing your best choices now, just in time for us to plan and select some of them for our garden. Just to review, did you also say if you buy end of season tulip bulbs that they should be stored in the refrigerator and then planted in early spring?
Hi Joyce! You definitely can store them in frig if you like! I store mine in brown bags in the crisper drawer.
Wow!!! That queen of night is STUNNING! 🤩 I have a garden room that is all yellows, purples, and variations thereon… most of my yellows are the roses, and the purples are things like verbena bonariensis, prince william clematis, etc. I MUST add those tulips to the party!
Ps- I’m a new subscriber and just devouring your videos, and as a small UA-camr (different channel - Life at Wren Haven) I take such inspiration from your lovely channel!! ❤
I was hoping the tulips I just planted wouldn't be on your never again list! Haha! They're not. They're the Little Princess Botanical Tulips. 2023 has been my first year gardening so I've still got a lot to learn. I don't plan on doing cut arrangements, I just want to have a beautiful healthy garden. I'm an artist and feel like I'm composing a living art project. Plus, it's a memorial garden for my Dad who loved flowers- he passed away in February of this year. I want it to be beautiful for him. Have you grown the Little Princess Tulips before? They're not on your list, so maybe not. I'm combining them with Crocuses and hope they look pretty next to each other. Thank you for your videos! I find them very helpful!
I found your video a year later and I’m very thankful to have found it! I have not planted tulips in a long while because when I used plant bulbs, the slugs used to eat them and they would not grow or they would grow deformed 🤦♀️. But, where I live now I have actual beds that I want to put tulips in… I am in zone 8B yet, we get a lot of rain in the spring - our summers don’t even start until after the Fourth of July so I’m looking for some tulips to put in the “in between” areas here and there… thank you for showing me which tulips work well and a wetter environment…
Thanks for sharing your list! I grew Charming Beauty next to Foxy Foxtrot this year. I didn't have problems that I noticed but side by side Foxy Foxtrot's colors blew it away. (Edit: I wrote that before I finished the video - I guess we were on the same page LOL 😀)
I’m so sorry on your feeling about Charming Beauty tulip. I LOVE that tulip. Her color is amazing and she’s so voluptuous in the vase. More bulbs for me, then.😉
For me charming beauty was such a beautiful tulip but they were so extremely fragile. When I would put them in a bouquet I’d say 1/2 or 1/3 of the heads would just pop off. Foxy foxtrot was a far superior quality/sturdy bloom.
I wonder if I can buy any of this in Greece ? My friend's mom ( in her 70's ) loves tulips and I really want to buy from Greece mailed to her for Christmas. Anyone knows pls let me know.
Thanks ! 🌹🌹🌹
Do you grow tulips for continous bloom times? I ordered Carnival tulips and white daffodils from Longfield Gardens. Here in Upstate New York, I have trouble with squirrels digging up tulips. It is better if I plant a daffodil bulb or allium bulb on top of the tulip bulb. Do you struggle with rodents?
Thank you! This was so helpful! And I'd love more videos like this--daffodils, alliums, and on and on!
I grow in zone 5a and have good success with Charming Beauty tulip last year and prior. They grew in part shade and lasted a long time. I also grew Queensland ( fringed and rose peony) last year and used them in mixed arrangements that I gave to others. They are on the shorter side but last a long time and everyone commented on them.
I’ll give them a try! Thanks for the Queensland tip!
Renown unique!!! Ughhh, on my list to never grow again. Weak neck and almost all of them snapped right below the head. It was really disappointing 😞
Allium videos please. I don't have any and would like your advice on where to plant, when to plant, etc. Thanks for asking.
Thanks for your list. Im about ready to put in my fall orders. Your arrangements are gorgeous!
Sorry if you’ve answered already but can i ask where you order your tulips/ other bulbs from?
Thank you as always for an amazing video, your channel is one of my absolute favorites!
Yes please video for Daffodils and Alliums thank you 👍🙏😊❤️
Ohhh love your top 10 tulip list Danielle! I’m steering away from late season tulips in my 2023 fall planting, as we have had 2 consecutive extremely warm springs (near 30 or above degree celsius weather!) and all my late tulips bloomed pathetically and totally unusable😢 Trying the dark palette also in the fall also😊can’t wait!
Thank you! I just put in a new garden area this summer and was looking for which bulb varieties to buy, Your gardens are spectacular!
I've actually had very good success with varieties like Antoinette, I think it might be a regional thing
I think you are giving multi stem tulips a bad rap here.
I have experience using them in flower arrangements and just this past Spring got over $200 for a small arrangement.
Where do you order your tulips from? Looking to order my Fall bulbs. Thank you!
I have ordered tulips from Colorblends,very good results. Some of variities u mentioned not available from them. Where do you order your tulips from?
Great video..i would be interested in daffodils and Alliums, well just about any bulb..Love to plant bulbs.
Thank you so much for this video. So informative.
I grew Charming Beauty last year too and was disappointed. On the short side and my only tulip that ended up with disease. The ones that opened were beautiful but I won’t likely grow them again.
Liked the video
I’ll need to try 1 or 2 of your top 10. Do you get new bulbs each year? Or do you save any, year to year? If you save- do a video about that.
12:16 have you tried this with other types? My forcing isn't going well & I was thinking of waiting & planting them fridge to ground in March.
Would love a video on daffodils and alliums. Your tulip video is terrific. I particularly like how you mention how long they last in the garden and how well they come back each year. Thank you so much.
Hi Danielle my favourite tulip at this stage is 'Lambada' it is just absolutely gorgeous also blooms for a long time have really strong stems. Thx for the video and yes please make one on daffodils and alliums.
Well, I thought my bulb order was complete, but maybe not . . . . I do have a few non-tulip bulbs that I want to order.
Thank you for the list of tulips. I look forward to more lists. They help when shopping.
Thank you for such a helpful video planning to add more Tulips in my garden.
You look at tulips from the point of view of someone who grows them for sale. For those of us who grow tulips just for personal pleasure, we see things completely differently.
Definitely a video on daffodils and Alliums would be wonderful
Thank u
Would like to see similar videos on narcissus and allium.
For me , charming beauty was not so bad, late blooming and shorter stems but no molding and no disease on leaves.
Thank you Danielle !!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, it would be great if you could do select bulb videos! Have you ever tried Flaming Parrot? 💚
Yes! I liked that one! It came in a mix. I recall it bloomed late. I can't remember much else about it.
It lasted pretty well for me, both in the ground and in the vase, but I haven't tried many of the others that you've recommended yet. I plan to, though! 💚
I had the same problem with yellow pomponet 🌷 and I'm in Minnesota!!
I love your videos. Ty. What is the orange tulip at minute 14:41?
Thank you so much for the list. ❤
The Black Hero tulips are absolutely stunning - and that arrangement you showcased in your garden - stunning! Question: have you considered putting together a graphics? Your photos are just brilliant.
So helpful! Thank you very much.
Thank you for sharing your tips on Tulips 💐
My comments should say orlaya, auto correct at work, sorry.
Great info 🌷🌷🌷
Very good information. Thank you.
Great video! Yes to more videos like this!
Yes I'd love that! Thank you!
What do you mean by compote arrangements?
Thanks for the info, would love a video on daffodils ❤
yes yes yes, for daffodils and allium..
Great video. I live in GA and spring is short before it gets warm. So I plant Emperor tulips in my pansies and viola annual beds which get planted in Oct. Do you think I could try Darwin? Do they bloom a lot later than Emperor?
Hi friend! My Darwin tulips bloom quite early. Right after the fosteriana tulips. They are usually coloring up when the fosterianas are blooming here.
@@NorthlawnFlowerFarm I really like the big flowers, strong stems, etc of the Fosteriana/Emperor. They have been excellent. But I want to try the Darwin to get a little bit later bloom as you suggested. How does the Darwin flower size etc compare to Emperor? Laura buys from ColorBlends but she’s on the west coast. You are I are on the East Coast. Have you bought from ColorBlends?
yes please more vids on early blooming bulbs
You are amazing,learning a lot from you.
Yes pleeeeeeze. Thank you sooooooooooooooooo much!!!
Danielle you share so kindly from your experience!!!! Thank you🙏🏻
Have you ever shared a link for your pretty black table and chairs? I love those backs!!!! Thanks for All You Do!!!!
I'm late watching this video! Such beautiful tulips! Thanks for sharing. Nothing like the joy spring bulbs bring!! Yes, yes, please videos for daffodils and alliums!!!...and any other bulbs like snowdrops, etc.
Lovely Flowers ^~^
My friend, thank you for good sharing 😊
