I looked up the cllimate of Houston on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_of_Houston/ Houston has a hot climate with more or less even rainfall throughout the year. Tulips prefer (or may even demand) dry summers. In your climate, istm that they would be prone to attack by fungal diseases. A question: did your bulbs put up foliage this year, or was there simply nothing where you had planted them? There may also be issues relating to soil fertility and pH. -- Rodger Whitlock Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Z. 7-8, cool Mediterranean climate
