Last fall, gardeners were asked to plant their tulip Test gardens in locations where their climate was best represented. Some were planted in different microclimates. How did your microclimate compare with your Test garden?
"Tulips in one spot emerged 4/20/14. The ones in the other spot emerged today, 4/27/14." Mankato, Minnesota
"Our first tulip of 72 bloomed today. It was the southernmost tulip, so we are wondering how much southern exposure matters." Chicago, Illinois 04/25/14
Latin School of Chicago, Beth Manning
