I’ve been purchasing bulbs from A.D.R. for many years. The quality is superior and the service fantastic. Chris and his family have always been prompt and accommodating. If you need it, Chris can find it! I wouldn’t shop anywhere else!

Planting: Plant in fall when soil temperatures fall below 55°F. Set bulbs 6–8 inches deep, pointed end up. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot to protect their full, textured blooms from spring wind and rain.
Spacing: Space bulbs 4–6 inches apart. For maximum impact, plant in groups of 10 or more—the dense double petals and frilled edges create a bold, luxurious effect.
Light: Full sun promotes strong stems and crisp petal texture. While light shade is tolerated, consistent sunlight enhances bloom fullness and fringe detail.
Soil: Requires well-drained, neutral to slightly acidic soil (pH 6–7). Avoid soggy soil—double flowers are especially sensitive to rot in poor drainage.
Watering: Water after planting to settle the soil. During spring growth, water only during dry spells to maintain healthy foliage and flower integrity.
Temperature & Dormancy: Needs 12–16 weeks of cold (below 50°F) to establish roots and initiate bloom.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced bulb fertilizer when planting and again as foliage appears in spring to support strong growth and full flower formation.
Pests: Generally trouble-free. Mulch or mesh may deter squirrels. Deer will eat buds and emerging foliage—especially in early spring—so use repellents or fencing in high-pressure areas.
Disease: To prevent Botrytis (Tulip Fire), plant firm, healthy bulbs in sunny, well-ventilated beds. Avoid overhead watering, and remove any diseased plant material—do not compost. Rotate planting locations annually and avoid replanting in infected areas for at least three years.
