How do you care for Mother's Day tulips?

Caring for tulips is pretty simple when you're attentive and intentional about it. With the right care, your bouquet could last up to a week or more. Follow these steps to keep your arrangement fresh and lovely:

• Cut the stems of your bouquet to fit the vase. Make sure to cut at an angle for maximum exposure to water.

• Mix a packet of plant food into room-temperature water. Be thorough, until it's totally mixed in.

• Place your tulips in the water and be sure to replace the water and plant food every 2 days. This should keep your blooms fresh for up to a week or more!

• Place the tulips in a location that receives partial-- not direct-- sun at least 6 hours each day
