You need to name the bulbs you are considering moving to get any meaningful answer. Al

Al, Thanks for the reply...I thought about that after the fact...it makes sense ..lol! The bulbs are ..elephant ears; the trailing kind, iris, amarylis, oriental lillies, daffodils, tulips and can't think of any others right off hand. That may be all the bulbs I have. Lots of other plants I hate to leave also; but worry about transplanting with them in the dormant stage. Have a lantana that got pretty big this past summer after 3 seasons in the ground and drew all kinds of butterflies and hummingbirds.. What's the chance of moving it as it is... ? Hope you or someone can help.. I have been renting here for 8 years and have an ample supply and hate to think of leaving everything to not be tended to by a new renter who is not a yard lover. Thanks for any input. I have gotten a lot of help on this site with beginning many of these plants.

The Elephant ears are going to be a big jumble of fleshy roots, but they can be moved now. The lantana can be moved now if you dig the roots with the soil remaining. I am guessing this a local move you are considering. The tulips and daffodils will be up before you move, they can still be moved but will probably not bloom this year. The rest should be dormant and move ok. I would try and keep the soil with the roots and plant them in the new home the same day they were dug. Al

Thanks so much for the input Al. I'll keep a post on how they do in the move and as the spring comes in! I've got lot's more yard to work with and am very much looking forward to it! God bless!

We once dug bearded iris out of frozen solid ground in January in Denver and moved them to the Bay Area in California, and they not only survived being out of the ground in the middle of winter for a couple of weeks, they bloomed that spring. So the iris should be fine.

Isn't winter the dormant season for your tropical bulbs? If so, they should be fine, too.
