Proven Tips for Planting Bulbs

For improved growth, plant bulbs in well-draining soil with plenty of sunlight. Control pests by using physical barriers like wire mesh to protect bulbs from animals. Water bulbs regularly during their active growing season, but reduce watering after they go dormant. Fertilize with a low-nitrogen bulb fertilizer in the spring to promote healthy blooms. Allow foliage to die back naturally before cutting back after flowering.
