Tulips and daffodils - March 20th, 2005 at 04:48 PM
Hi all. I have been reading here for quite some time now. Have learned so much, but now I have a question.
My new hubby and I bought a new house late last spring. I have had almost a year now to see what was growing around here. In some of the beds there are quite a few tulips and daffodils.This spring only a very few are blooming, even though alot came up. My question is if they need to be divided, when or do the bulbs just get too old and need to be dug up and replaced with new ones?
I live in the panhandle of Texas.
I am pretty new at this but already know there are several small beds that I will take everything out of and start new. There is lots of shade in the yard and the previous owners tried to plant sedum in all of the beds. It was so leggy last year. Needs more sun.
Thanks to anyone who may be able to help me.
Tim's sweetie
