How to recognise Orange tulip, when it is in season and how to keep it fresh.
Trim stems at an angle and place in shallow cool water, as tulips drink heavily and stems continue to elongate after cutting. Keep away from direct heat and strong sunlight to stop bending and over-opening. Do not mix with daffodils unless the daffodils have been conditioned separately, as their sap can harm tulips. Change water regularly as it clouds quickly.
5–7 days
Store in the cooler at around 2–5°C, standing in shallow water.
Toxic – keep out of reach of cats and dogs.
