Are Tulips bulbs perennial, do they come back every year?
No, most Tulips are not reliably perennial. While some botanical species and perennial varieties may return for several years under ideal conditions, the majority of garden tulips are grown as annuals. For the best display, it is generally recommended to plant fresh bulbs each autumn.
