Planting bulbs that bloom in the spring

Is it too early to do this? What does everyone plant? Just tulips?

TIA!

Re: Planting bulbs that bloom in the spring

my mom is great with this stuff. about 3-4 weeks ago my mom came over and planted all our tulip bulbs. I dont know if its getting too cold to still do it though. I would think that it should be fine though

Re: Planting bulbs that bloom in the spring

You should do it before the first freeze, so you have plenty of time.

I plant tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, crocus and a few others. If you plant a variety, try to pick ones that bloom at different times (early spring vs. late spring vs. early summer) so you'll always have some flowers.

Re: Planting bulbs that bloom in the spring

you still have time! Like op mentioned- before first freeze. I've been putting mine off...hopefully this week!

Re: Planting bulbs that bloom in the spring

I still need to do this - not too late yet!

Re: Planting bulbs that bloom in the spring

Best time to plane tulips is right now. As soon as the house is ours, I'm planting tulips!!! It should say on the box or bag the best time to plant each.
