This year is the third year my hyacinths and tulips have been in the
ground. I can't tell yet about the tulips, but the hyacinths look like
they're putting up A LOT of greenery and very few flowers on multiple
stalks. Am I supposed to dig them up and divide them or something?

Thanks for the help and please reply to this news group.

I dig up the tulips after flowering and toss them, they do crappy the
following year. I actually toss them way down in the back yard and just
leave them. After a few years they start blooming again and I have a
naturalized look. Hys I dig up after the foliage dies back and replant in
the fall.
