Planting and Growing Information
Plant Menton tulip bulbs in fall, before the ground freezes, approximately 4 inches deep and spaced to allow 6 bulbs per square foot. They thrive in well-drained soil and perform beautifully in zones 3-8. Expect magnificent blooms in late to very late spring, typically May, when many other spring flowers have faded. The impressive 24-inch height makes these tulips perfect for back borders, mass plantings, or as dramatic focal points in landscape designs.
