Default Early Spring Bulbs

I planted some spring bulbs about a month ago - planting them at the
depth which it said on the packet.

They have come through already - some by as much as half an inch.

Should I cover them up with compost; move them in to the green house
and protect from frost; just leave as they are; or any other
suggestion.




I would leave them where they are now. It can't hurt to cover them with
compost though.
I am sure as can be that they will be fine.
Last winter was the hardest, longest and coldest in my life and I lost
every "hardy" veg, but the daffies and tulips came up as normal.
My established daffs were showing in Sept. this year and I have complete
confidence that they will be fine.

Best wishes
