Growing Fringed Tulips: These exotic beauties add dimension to the spring garden, with finely-cut edges that appear softly frayed, often displaying a contrasting color. These unique, long-lasting blooms add rich texture to gardens and cut flower arrangements. To encourage their return, plant bulbs in fall in full sun with well-drained soil, where they can stay dry when dormant. After flowering is done, allow foliage to die back naturally to feed the bulbs for next seasons blooms.
