How do I prevent pests and diseases in my tulips?

Our Advice:

To prevent pests and diseases in your tulips, make sure they are planted in well-draining soil and are not overwatered. Avoid overhead watering, as wet leaves can lead to fungal diseases. Watch for common pests like aphids, slugs, and snails, and treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or other organic controls.
