No need to bring scissors but do BYOB-bring your own bucket for the ride home. We provide buckets for picking. Simply grasp the stem as close to the ground as possible and pull straight up. This ensures a long stem. If you pull further up, the stem could snap leaving you with a short tulip or worse just the flower. Don't worry if the bulb comes out of the ground with it. You can snap it off at our self serve wrapping station and leave it in a bucket for us to use as our planting stock. Try not to leave your flowers in the sun for too long especially mid-day. Keep them in a bucket of water for the drive home to ensure freshness. We have a water source at the farm. (ADDED: April 3, 2017, JBS)

 

Tulip Picking Tips, and Information

Farms that offer U-pick or pick-your-own tulips are becoming more common. Tulips follow daffodils. So once you see daffodils blooming in your area, expect the tulips about one month later

• Once picked, quickly get the stems into water
• Get them out of the hot sun after picking to increase shelf life.  Cool shade is best.
• Re-cut stems while underwater - once you get home. Making a fresh cut, while the cut end is submerged helps the stem to take up water and avoid a vapor lock.
