It's early in the season, they are living so they are growing. Give it time.

It could be anything from soil condition, depth of planting, age of the bulbs to location. Or like the first person answered, the are still growing.
If you plan on keeping the bulbs for flowering next season, get some bone meal, Bulb Booster or other specialty fertilizer for bulbs and apply as directed. Also cut the flower stems as soon as the flower pedals fall off. And leave all the leaves as is until they start to yellow, then you can cut them back. All this will help the bulb to store energy for next year's blooms.

The flowers on the package were grown under controlled conditions, they were on a specific fertilizer regimen and were given what are called growth regulators which are hormones known to cause more leaf growth, more root growth, or encourage more flowers.
If they are in a pot, if they are already done flowering, you might want to let the leaves die out and prepare to store them for next year.
Next year maybe add some fertilizer to your soil.A balanced fertilizer should help. If they are going to be again in a pot add a bit of fertilizer to the soil before planting the bulbs.
Good Luck.

Try giving it a couple seasons. They may just be young. You could try cutting the flowers off this year and let the plant focus on growth with better flowering next year.

hm, u see im a tulip major in college, and i think it comes down to how the tulips were raised as seeds. you see... they could have a long family of short stems it all has to do with the dominent and recessive jeans from both of the seeds.

if they haven't flowered yet, it might be too early to know. but if so you might have them too deep maybe. or maybe its an ancestor to a drawf. do use bone meal on your bulb plants though. it really does help with health of your plants.
