indoor forced crocus spring bulbs 2/18/10

well i bought these crocus plants last year and they were sprouting then bloomed.so when the flowers died off i put the bulbs in the fridge.all spring bulbs need to be stored in the fridge when done blooming.then when you are ready to plant them in the ground or indoor force which i have done they will be chilled.so hopefully this experiment will work out for me.several years ago i had daffodil bulbs blooming in a bag in the front hall were its very cold and has no heat.so i indoor forced them and came up with dozens of beautiful daffodils! it was like i bought bunches of them in pots!

@poitinstill well yeah you are supposed to put them in the fridge.if you get tulips or any spring flower plant like daffodils or hyacinths when the flowers die just put the bulbs in a bag and stick them in the fridge and plant them in the fall or summer.even spring.its that simple.

In the fridge, eh? I never tried that! And its too late now, but I'll try it next year
