Flower gardens are a beautiful addition to any home or office space. Tending to flowers is a skill practised by diverse people ranging from landscapers to homemakers to farmers. Whether you are doing it as a profession or a hobby, growing flowers needs some time.
Some flowers require more precision, while others are just interesting to tend. Flowering tulips are a favourite with many gardeners due to various reasons, among them, the following.
Tulips Are Unique
There are plenty of varieties of flowers the world over. Tulips have several diverse types to choose from, including Turnip, Rembrandt, Woodland, Darwin, Lily flowered, Fosteriana, Cottage, Parrot, Watering, and Peony, among other varieties. The diversity of tulip species is almost as diverse as the espresso cups at the RoyalDesign store. The flower is also stunning in its array of colours and shapes when it blooms. This attribute increases its aesthetic value.
Tulips Grow All Year Round
Due to their diverse nature, you can plant many varieties that will keep your garden glowing all year round. For warmer seasons such as spring, you can get the hybrid tulips, including T. tarda, T. kaufmanniana, and T. greigii. In mid-season such as autumn, you can plant species including late tulips and Darwin hybrids.
Tulips Are Easy to Maintain
Tulips are low maintenance plants. Flowers take about two weeks to appear, and they fully bloom in three months. They also don’t like overwatering, so you don’t have to worry about forgetting. You need to keep the soil moist, well manured, and in full sunlight.
