Does anyone know how to get tulips that are supposed to get 18 - 20" to get that tall before blooming? I grew a bed of beautiful tulips last winter that I'd hoped to use in bouquets - but they started blooming at 8 - 10" instead of the 18 - 20" they were supposed to be. What did I do wrong? Bury them too deep? I have heavy clay soil - could that be the problem? Should I did them up and plant them in planters? Any advice would be appreciated !!
