Transplanting tulips
 

The stonemasons arrived before the tulips
had blossomed and shed . . . so I transplanted
those that had not yet opened (and was surprised
at the length of the long white stem down to the
bulb.) Will these survive? Will they bloom?

Transplanting tulips
 

If you got a good clump of dirt and roots with each one, and transplanted
promptly, and put them at the same depth, and watered them in, they should
be fine. Time will tell...
