OC believes that these are a tulips he planted Thanksgiving day. Seems to think that by being inside it is actually later than it actually is. Will keep you informed on its progress ?? Coot :eek: :eek: :eek:

Coot keep us posted. I know I would love to see a tulip early.

Angie, I buy bulbs late every season and store them cold. I got about 300 bulbs for 75% off at Lowes this year in Nov. I put them in a thick cardbord box in the garage. I pull them out in March and plant them. Just find a unheated area and store them until Spring.

75% off :o

Here they hardly went down last year, do not know why :(

I normally bye some eraly, just can't let all of them hang there in the shops, but then, when they are down prices late October or start November, I bye more... and more :D

Can't you plant them in November ?
If you can dig a hole you can just put them in the ground or at least that's what I do
