Hi-
I have a question about tulips. I planted a lot of them last fall to

fill
the front of a new flower bed. This year my husband and I have

decided to do
some additional landscaping and the tulips have to go At any rate,

I was
wondering if any one knew how to pull the bulbs out and keep them so

I can
transplant them in the fall.


wait until greenery starts to wilt ...dig up with digging fork ...you
won't believe how deep they can go ...some would replant immediately,
other would trim off green, let dry and keep cool to prevent rotting,
until late fall after heavy rains are finished
