Planting and Growing Information
Plant Black Hero tulip bulbs in fall, approximately 4 inches deep and spaced to allow 6 bulbs per square foot. These adaptable tulips perform beautifully in well-drained soil across various light conditions. Their late to very late spring blooming period (when many other tulips have finished) extends the seasonal color display in client landscapes. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong returns in subsequent seasons.
