Welcome to Tulip Photography

I enjoy taking photographs of nature and flowers. Tulip photography is a great way to showcase the beauty of these wonderful garden flowers. When I was a child I remember the beautiful, colorful tulips growing in our garden. Such elegance and beauty these flowers exude. I still love to walk through tulip gardens, admiring all the wonderful varieties and colors that they come in and of course talking photos of them too! I will share with you some information and beautiful photography of tulips. Also the best time to plant tulip bulbs and how to care for them. I hope you gain a little bit of knowledge from this lens and enjoy tiptoeing through the tulips with me!

Planting Tulip Bulbs

Tulip bulbs are best planted before the cold and frosty weather arrives. It is best for the soil to be moist and sandy. Adding sand will help with drainage of the soil. For best results you will want to plant your bulbs between Oct. and Nov. ( of course, depending on the climate where you live.) When digging the holes to plant the bulbs, one should dig down approximately three times the length of the bulb. Do not overcrowd bulbs when planting. Tulips also enjoy full sun so choose an area of the garden that the sun will reach for best results.
