I have 3 different ones and they always fall over before they bloom if I don't get them tied up. Is there something I could plant in front of them? I think they would be too heavy for most plants.

They are basicly small round metal stakes with a hoop on top. Stick it in the ground next to the bulb, watch out for the actual bulb, and it will stay inside the hoop. Good luck
