Planting and Growing Information
Plant 'Orange Marmalade' bulbs in fall, 6-8 inches deep and 6 inches apart in well-drained soil. They thrive in full sun to partial shade locations in USDA hardiness zones 3-8. Expect magnificent blooms in late spring, typically May, when most early tulips have finished. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to strengthen bulbs for future seasons. These tulips perform beautifully in both garden beds and containers.
