I love tulips but do not have the patience to wait for them to "brown out" so I buy some in the spring, and set the roots into my mulch so only the flower and leaves show. They bloom for the normal time and then when they die, I take them out and put in another type of flower of that season. I give the ones I have used to neighbors and friends who have large gardens. I only have a small walkway to my house and they're perfect for me.

You can often get satisfactory results by cutting off the dead foilage before it turns completely brown. Leave the bulb buried under the ground. They will return bigger & better in the years to come. Much less expensive than buying them new each year.
