Water: Tulips 'Hollywood Star' have low water needs, requiring only one watering after planting. During flowering, occasional watering is necessary to keep soil moist. Maintain moisture until leaves wither. Small pots may need more frequent watering, while garden tulips 'Hollywood Star' usually rely on rain unless conditions are very dry.

Fertilize: Tulips are typically used as one-time bulbs, discarded post-bloom or stored after summer. Fertilizer is unnecessary unless soil quality is poor, in which case a balanced fertilizer or bone meal should be mixed into the soil during bulb planting.

Pruning: Tulips 'Hollywood Star', with its vibrant blooms, thrives on strategic pruning in early to late spring. Deadheading spent flowers diverts energy to bulb growth, while removing damaged leaves enhances air circulation and minimizes pests, promoting robust and ornamental health.

Propagation: Collect small bulbs from tulips 'Hollywood Star' for planting in early spring. Space them three times their diameter and cover with 3 cm of soil. Keep in shade and moist. After a year, mix in fertilizer and plant multiple bulbs together. Flowers can bloom in 2-3 years.
