Did You Know #8: Tulips and Spring Flowers

It may seem to be a bit early in the season for tulips, but spring flowers are already making their appearance at your local florist shop.

Late winter is prime production time for the growers who provide these bulb-bursting beauties for our enjoyment, and the choices are never more abundant.

Tulips as well as all spring flowers benefit from being removed from their arrangements and having their stems re-cut every few days.

Interestingly, tulips continue to grow and elongate after they're cut, often stretching toward a light source.
