Hi all:
Fall is upon us, and I'm rather new to the Autumn yard scene. My knowledgeable father-in-law tells me I need to dig up my gladiola bulbs before they freeze, to replant next year. I'm in Atlantic Canada, zone 5b I think. Questions I have:
- How do I store them? Little plastic containers in the cool basement OK? Should I put them in some sand or something to keep them dry?
- What about all the little bulblets that are stuck to the sides of most of them? Pull 'em off and save them? Pitch 'em? Leave them alone to do what they will?
Thanks!
KD
