Default Crocuses

So my crocuses have done their flowering bit and now are jusr long
green/white leaves. I'm new to gardening, what do I do with them now?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.





Richard,

Just leave them alone until they turn yellow (or brown). The leaves
help "feed" the bulb for next year's bloom. A little bone meal will
help too.
