If you're finding your tulips are wilting soon after popping them in a vase, there's a simple trick that will help them stand up straight and keep them looking fresh for longer
Spring is the season for tulips, and whether you're plucking them from your garden or purchasing a bouquet, they're an excellent way to inject some colour into any room. While drooping tulips doesn't necessarily mean they're ready for the bin, you might prefer your tulips to stand tall for longer.
Tulips are phototropic, meaning they lean towards the light. Although they shouldn't be placed in direct sunlight, ensuring they receive enough light can help them stand upright. Firstly, ensure you've trimmed the stems. Then, take a safety pin and pierce it through the top of the stem, just beneath the bloom.
