I have a bunch of daffodil and tulip bulbs that were a container garden, when do I transplant them outside?

Plant them now. There is little point in waiting 4 months while bulbs dry out unnecessarily. I always plant container/pot bulbs as soon as flowers fade. This can be beneficial , as in mild climates, root development can develop while soil is still warm, rather than Fall planting when temperatures are falling.

plant them late summer or early fall they will bloom next year
Reply:Plant the bulbs in the fall.
Reply:these bulbs should be planted in the fall.remember when planting daffodil do bloom first.
Reply:Late fall before it frosts, that way they can bloom next spring.
Reply:The bulbs need to be planted in the fall before the first hard frost. Plant them twice as deep as their size. If you live where it gets really cold; mulch the bed. They will bloom in the spring.
Reply:Depends where you live.


I live in PA and put my bulbs in the soil arounmid to end of October.


This way they can get established but do not send out any shoots.
