If like me, you garden in a climate that doesn't receive enough cold weather to chill all of the beautiful spring blooming bulbs, you can still enjoy them by planting pre-chilled bulbs. From time to time, I store tulip bulbs in the vegetable drawer of my refrigerator through the winter. In January, I plant them in the garden or in pots so that I can enjoy the beautiful flowers. My favorites are tulips, but I've also tried daffodils and had good success.
If you didn't plan ahead and store some bulbs (or plant them last fall in cooler climates), there are nurseries from whom you can purchase pre-chilled bulbs. Right now, Blooming Bulb has limited quantities of pre-chilled bulbs (daffodils, hyacinths & tulips) on sale. As a bonus, they are also offering "free shipping" on these bulbs.
