WHAEN IS the BEST TIME TO PLANT TULIP/DAFFS/AND CROCUSES?
Gut feeling is plant your bulbs in October
Reply:I think they are planted in the fall because they are among the first plants up in the early spring
Reply:Early on in spring I think.
Reply:Now.
Reply:In the Fall.
Reply:Mario is 100% correct. Give him the ten points.
Reply:September-october
Reply:You can plant daffodils and crocus as soon as they become available for you to buy. It is advisable to leave the tulips until november when the weather is a little cooler as there will be less chance of the tulip developing tulip fire. This is a disease that tulips can contract if they are planted too early. Remember to plant your bulbs 3 times the thickness of the bulb down in the soil whether it's in a pot or in the ground.

september october i think is best in uk
Reply:They need the cold weather to prepare them to restart mode


but they start putting out roots during the winters easing cold weather so you want them already in the ground before it starts to unfreeze or warm up





I would say as soon as they show up in the stores to buy so you are not just picking from leftovers


but plant them as soon as the space you are going to put them is is available from whatever you were already growing there





dont forget to mark the area you planted them so that you do not disturb them in the spring just cause something else to plant caught your eye in the store
Reply:September through the first hard freeze. Buy 'em now!
Reply:Call your county extension service for advise. Depends on where you live. Northern climates in the Fall.
Reply:You can plant them now
Reply:October/ November
Reply:Between now and November.
