I just planted my tuberose a few days ago and I'm crossing my fingers for them. This is my first year planting bulbs too. I think that planting them now might be a good idea because I've heard that bulbs aren't like seeds and last a few years.

My friends told me that everything is getting a late start due to the frost so they might have a chance to survive. What bulbs did you get? I got Dahlias. Tulips, and Gladioulus. I must have done something wrong with the daylillies and peony. Good luck on your bulbs :)

Depending on the bulb, it may or may not be too late. But you have to plant them now to give them a shot. They don't store for long!

I'll be planting tomorrow. I ordered online from Breck's and it took waaay longer that I would have expected. I ordered "Poppy Anemone", "Peacock Orchids", and "Carpet Border Lily's".

Have you planted the anemones? What type of anemone is it? Many HATE HEAT and come as tiny corms that you can keep until October then plant. the others should be OK. I would try to did up the anemones, allow them to drip then plant in Oct unless they are something unusual. Anemones are not a summer bulb for us, but like pansies.... c

They are Anemone coronaria. I planted about half of them. How long will they last if I try to store them. Should they go in the refrigerator?

no need to refrigerate...just keep somewhere you will remember. In October, soak for a few hours or overnight and plant with their eyes up. If you cannot see the "eyes" after soaking plant on their sides. Do not expect all to make it. Even right from the box in the fall they are only about 70%. There are some pics in the gallery of my tulips with Mr Fokker a blue violet anemone coronaria. I also love blue poppy.

Will all bulbs save like that?
