They don't need any protection. They have been doing it for millions of
years in the wild without protection. They are well adapted to the cold.
There really should be a list of bulbs that produce their foliage in that
autumn so that new growers don't panic every year when this happens.

Thanks a lot. It's my first time to grow bulbs so I don't know this kind
of
stuff. Is there anything I can do to protect them for the frozen weather
in
winter?

Fooled ya, eh?
Some spring bulbs naturally produce their foliage in the late autumn.
Its
normal for them and the leaves typically suffer no damage from winter
cold.

I live in Columbus, OH. I buried some spring bulbs (daffodil, iris,
crocus
etc.) around mid Oct.and covered with falling leaves. But several days
ago,
I found some bulbs already begun to grow with leaves coming out from
the
soil. Will these bulbs die in the winter? Did I plant these bulbs too
early?
When is the most suitable time to bury spring bulbs in my area?
Thanks.
