How do I care for Tulips in Arizona?

Answer

It sounds like they did bloom this year. They may bloom next year. Once the leaves turn yellow you can dig up the bulbs and wrap them in newspaper and store them in the vegetable drawer of your refrigerator. If you do not dig them up they will not survive the summer. The soil will get too hot and they will literaly "cook" in the ground. Plant them in the fall around November.
