Tulip troubles.
« on: April 12, 2020, 14:50 »
This is what my tulips look like - the stems are only an inch or two long. This is a first for me.

The usual search engine says that they have not had a long enough period of cold weather. I know it was a mild winter but the daffodils are superb.

What I would like to know is will they be ok next year, or should I dig them up and replace them in the autumn.

Thanks

Elaine

Planted December or January so winter not autumn. Possibly a bit late?
