Should I cut the stalk of my tulips after blooming has stopped or leave them alone?

Let the stalks wither out first. The bulbs are still getting nutrients from the stalks.

Hi michelle, ideally you should allow the Tulip stalks to die back first before cutting them off, resisting that temptation to cut them making it look neater, that way the plant is not stressed and nutrients are returned back to the ground.





Keep the flowers watered and fed and have a great summer!
