My flowers are in shock?

I think my flowers (mostly tulips) are in shock. I had to dig up the whole garden yesterday in order to rid it of a bunch of weeds and clovers and to make the arrangement look more symmetric...but now they are laying flat and won%26#039;t stand straight.





I%26#039;ve given plenty of water and miracle grow to help them....but what else can I do to make them stand up tall again?
My flowers are in shock?

FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersThis is typical, and is called transplant shock. Some plants handle transplanting much better than others; some will totally curl up and die. Ever try to transplant a poppy? Most bulb plants including tulips survive transplanting fine, however they very likely will not do anything this season.





Now that you’ve done this, fall would have been a better time to have done your thorough weeding job.
Reply:leave them alone ,and you might get lucky enough to have the bulbs absorb the plant growth ,and bloom next season. I%26#039;m only saying lucky ,because of the 20/20/20 fertilization that you gave them might rot the bulb .you see a bulb s food is the dying vegetation that it produces ,meaning that it is SELF feeding.
Reply:If the bulbs are showing you have no chance. Sound like you have desturbed the bulbs but there is%26#039;nt much else you can do,exept if they are new flowers then tie a cane to them.
Reply:I personally wouldn%26#039;t have done the miracle grow. If they are already in shock they aren%26#039;t going to need the extra stimulation. I would just conctinue to water and see what happens.
Reply:did you move the tulips??


your best bet is to leave them alone and don%26#039;t over water them either


and stay away from the miracle grow, I never use that stuff and my flowers and veggies do fine
Reply:as you say they are in shock just give just give TLC and see what happensWhite Teeth
