I love tulip hand ties, yummy, you can get a nice shape. Twiggy bits with tulips is nice and Ive done a few with sisal over the hand tied, I know that doesnt sound nice but it made it look romanticy and weddingyfied, not too much mind, just enough so you can still see all the lovely tulips, you put in on before the outer leaves or whatever you are putting round the edge and pot tape it where you have tied it, just an idea
