Water: Tulips 'Artist' require minimal watering, usually just once after planting. During flowering, ensure consistent soil moisture, especially in pots.

Pruning: Tulips 'Artist' thrives with early to late spring pruning, focusing on cutting spent flowers to boost future blooms. Wait for foliage to fully yellow before removing it to preserve nutrients. Use clean tools to promote health and appearance, enhancing tulips 'Artist''s performance.
