I bought 3 tulip plants from store can I plant them in my garden?
yes, anytime the soil is workable
Reply:yes i believe u can:)
Reply:Yes, it is warm enough now. Mix the potting soil with the regular soil and start planting then water to seal them or to make sure the dirt seals around the roots and bulb. Basic the same for your other flowers. Dont plant to deeply or cover to deeply with mulch.
Reply:why not
Reply:Yes, If you want them to bloom next year, do not cut back the foilage until it turns brown.
Reply:You can check your hardiness zone here:

(depending upon where you live in Arkansas, you'll be in zone 6, 7, or 8).



Then check the plant tags to see when it is suggested for putting them in the ground in your zone. Usually the tag will give you a range of dates. If you're within those dates and there's no chance of frost, you'll be fine planting them in the ground.
