Greetings!

Celebrate Mother's Day with a smile! A favorite of many, the Tulip, has been around us since the 16th century. This year fill your mother's heart with joy and excitement.
 
Parrot Tulip
 Parrot Tulips have petals that are feathered, curled, twisted, or waved. Besides this, the flowers are very large and brightly coloured. If you want dramatic tulips, these are a great choice.
 
Important Facts about Tulip
 - While Tulips are still wrapped, recut tulip stems underwater and place the wrapped bunches in clean buckets containing a properly prepared solution of fresh flower food.

- Tulip stems which have been stored out of water will be unable to stand and will assume the shape they are in upon reabsorbing water.
For this reason, tulip stems
should be left tightly wrapped
during processing.

- DO NOT put tulips in vases or
buckets containing daffodils.
Daffodils have a sappy
substance that clogs tulip
stems and dramatically
shortens vase life.
