Planting and Growing Information

Plant 'Big Smile' tulip bulbs in fall, approximately 6-8 inches deep and 4-6 inches apart in well-drained soil. They thrive in full sun but tolerate partial shade, performing beautifully in USDA hardiness zones 3-8. After flowering in late spring, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong returns. These tulips pair wonderfully with late-blooming perennials that can mask the fading foliage while providing continued garden interest.
