Journey North International Tulip Study
There are 3 critical dates for you to keep in mind. These dates are all provided the instructions, but we want
to highlight them here:
December 1, 1998
Before this date you must REPORT back to Journey North and confirm that you PLAN to plant an official garden.
Here's why: On December 11, we will post a list of all official Journey North gardens, so schools will be able
to contact partners to exchange predictions and data. In cold regions, people will have already planted their gardens
by early December. However, because you won't plant your garden until January, and because we want to include your
school on the list, you must report back BEFORE your garden is planted. The REPORT form will ask the date your
tulips were planted. USE JANUARY 4, 1999 as your planting date.
December 7, 1998
This is the latest date you can begin to force dormancy. As explained in the special planting instructions, your
bulbs must be refrigerated for at least 4 weeks. In order to plant on January 4th, December 7, 1998 is the latest
date you can start this process.
January 4, 1999
Plant your tulips any time during the week of January 4, 1999.
