Default Tulip bulbs

Thank you! I was talking about bulbs that are not yet growing, so I see
it's not the best time to plant them...


y.w.

true.

if you plant them now they may or may not bloom,
but for sure the next year will be affected.

if you want a better solution i would plant
them now (water well) and then plan on replanting
replacements in the fall.

most spring flowering bulbs will be best when
planted in the fall unless there is a significant
note on the planting guides as to why they should
be planted otherwise.
