We moved to a house with an already richly planted perennial bed. What do I do with the dying foliage of the tulips when their time has passed?
Answer When leaves of the tulips start to die down they can be safely removed. This indicates that the bulb has replenished itself and is returning to the dormant state. When the leaves are ready to be removed it can be accomplished with a gentle tug and the bulb will release them without any damage. If they do not release with a gentle tug just wait a few more days and try again.
