I am thinking of planting bulbs (dialia - spell might be wrong?) just about
1.5 ft in front of leylandii stems all along the hedge line. Leylandiis are
young 4 ft tall and thin stemed just now. Does this sound ok or bad idea??

It depends how well trimmed the leylandii will be. If they make that
area very dry, it is a bad idea; if they allow rain to fall there,
then that is fine. I recommend growing Cyclamen coum (and perhaps
other species) a bit closer in, because they like the dryness.
