"Tulips, while elegant indoors and out, have a peculiar quirk: The stems grow at least an inch after being cut. Harvest tulips when the buds are still predominantly green, with a touch of color starting to show. Leave a leaf or two on the upper part of the stem. This will help the flower open fully. When kept well watered, some varieties, such as parrot tulips, can last even longer than the typical 10 days in a vase."
