Wow, great to hear from you. The Old Farmer’s ÃÛÌÒÁµÈË is located right next door to the Dublin church, as you probably know! The answer depends on the bulb. Daffodils do not have to be refrigerated. Bulbs should be planted at a depth twice the diameter of the bulb itself.
Plant crocus bulbs in November, 3 inches deep and 3 to 6 inches apart.
Tulips in your area should be chilled 8 to 10 week—a minimum of eight weeks chilling. This must be done before planting. You can wait to plant bulbs until mid- to late December. Bulbs should be planted six inches deep. They’ll bloom in latter part of March to the first part of April, depending on weather conditions. They must be dug each year and prepared for fall planting which includes a refrigeration period. We do not recommend carrying over tulips; best to start with new bulbs each year.
Hyancinth bulbs need 6 to 8 weeks of refrigeration. Plant in late Dec or early January, and plant the bulbs 4 to 6 inches deep.
