I have to give you a little tip about tulips which was told to me by my almost 96 year old wonderful neighbour! When you buy the tulips and before putting them in water, get out a needle or a pin. Then, very carefully, insert the pin (or needle) through the base of the bloom, twice, so that it forms a cross (no one will see it) Then if you keep the tulips in a cool place they will last for ages and ages! Doesn't work for me, as my little cottage gets a bit warm, (and I realise you're working with much higher temperatures) but if you can find a cool window sill .. wait and see!
