I have a plant of tulips and mini daffodils that have finished blooming...what do I do with the bulbs now?

If you have a nice sunny spot in your yard then you can plant them. Just make sure you leave all the leaves and greenery on the bulbs because they need to absorb all the sun they can get in order to rebloom next spring. The greenery will eventually die back after the bulbs have absorbed the energy.





Addition: As long as you experience a cold winter then you can put them in the ground and leave them there. If you do not live in an area where it gets cold then can leave them in their container and set them in a sunny location so they can absorb the light energy and then you will to keep them in the refrigerator during the winter months if you want them to bloom again.





Additional addition :) Then it should be just fine for you to find a sunny spot in your yard to let them soak up the sun, die back, and then reemerge next Spring.

I've always heard that they need to be allowed to die down and then pulled from the ground and placed in the freezer for a few months. Then bring out and plant around Thanksgiving day. This simulates the ground freezing. But I'm in So Cal and I used to leave them in the ground year around. I had blooms year after year. I would fertilize with blood meal when I was fertilizing my azaleas. Hope this helps.I have a plant of tulips and mini daffodils that have finished blooming...what do I do with the bulbs now?
leave them in the ground, they are getting stronger after flowering. daffodils will come back, maybe even flower in fall. tulips my not make it in a warm area. may have to replant. give it a year see what happens. dont trim till tips of stalks discolor
when the greens turn brown, cut them down and plant in soil outside for next year. be sure to mulch them well and sprinkle with bone meal.
