That was my thought too. The one time I tried tulips i did that and still
had people checking it out to see if it was edible

Shell -
You are basically bulb forcing. So I believe that like bulb
forcing you need to pot it firs. I would for your hungry hoards
protection, put the pot in a bag - staple the bag and label it.

Bob Childer used to grow them in New Orleans, with the help of a
dedicated refrigerator. They moved to Texas recently and I have
not seen him here. He has quite a bit of information on his web
site.

I hope this is helpful. Good luck.
