The tulips have all come back. They are very beautiful in flower." Analysis: - "reprendre" can be translated as "come back" in this context, indicating that the tulips have started growing again after a period of dormancy. - "belles en fleurs" can be translated as "beautiful in flower," emphasizing the beauty of the tulips when they are in full bloom.

Planting and care

Plant your tulips as soon as possible in a well-drained soil. Loosen the soil deeply. Plant them at a depth of 15 cm (6in) (Bulbs should be covered with twice their height of soil). Space the bulbs a few cm apart, making sure they do not touch each other. Choose a sunny exposure for better flowering. After flowering, cut the stems but let the leaves dry completely before cutting them. After flowering, the foliage becomes unsightly and faded. We recommend planting Heucheras, Tiarelles, Brunneras, Bleeding Hearts, Euphorbia Cyparissia in the foreground of your flower beds. Their foliage will enhance the colours of your tulips and elegantly conceal their yellowed leaves. Red is still uncommon in the garden, so take advantage of the wide range of tulips in this colour. Red tulips will be elegantly enhanced by dark green foliage, such as a yew or box hedge. Also consider dark foliage like Heuchera Obsidian.
