container gardens - May 4th, 2003 at 03:56 PM
Hello to all, I'm new on this board and would like opinions and experience. I no longer can garden like you all and this year I'm trying something new to me. I planted some bulbs such as tulips, crocus and calla lillies in pots. So far, the tulips are up about 4-6 inches and iris that are bulbs which are just about coming through. The calla lillies started to grow and then browned up. The crocus just about grew so little but are healthy. Would this be because I planted them this spring? These were bulbs I purchased last fall and they were out in the storage room all winter and were shooting this spring in the bags. Will they be ok for winter if left in containers and placed in the storage room? all
