Forcing Bulbs

Blooming tulip bulbs.

Questions

Planting Hyacinth Bulbs in Raised BedsIn the past I have planted bulbs in raised planters without success, the bulbs never come up. I'm assuming they are freezing over our harsh New England winters. I'm wondering if I plant the bulbs in pots first, then put them into the raised planter if that it might give them a better chance of not freezing.

Storing Elephant Ear BulbsCan you store the elephant ear bulbs for more than 1 year without replanting them? I had about 15 areas with elephant ears and at the end of last season ended up with about 100 tubers. I couldn't use them all.

Day Lily Not Blooming - day lily foliage in a pot

Day Lily Not BloomingI've had a day lily plant for about 4 yrs now and it was blooming perfectly until my mom picked the flower off the stalk because she thought it was dead. That was about a year and a half ago, but no flowers since. What is going on?

Growing DayliliesI have daylilies growing in my yard. I have yellow, red, and orange. I noticed that all of the lilies that bloomed first are gone now. Just the flowers, the stems and pistols remain. Will these re-bloom? They just started blooming. Now the other colors are there and the orange are gone.
