Hello, last summer I had a new sidewalk and porch built in front of my house along with a new flower bed. In the fall I planted bulbs of hyacinth, daffodils and tulips. They are blooming nicely, except for the daffodils (which is the subject for another post). In my bcak yard, there is a mound of earth which the contractor dug up from the front.
From this mound, there are about a half dozen beautiful yellow tulips
which must have been from the old flower bed. I'd like to move these tulips to the front of the house to "join" the others.
My question is: can I safely transplant the tulips now while they are blooming? Or, is it better to wait until they're done, remove the bulbs and re-plant in the fall? What's the best way to store the bulbs until planting time?
Many thanks. Denny
