My mom bought a big box of Tulip bulbs.  I will set them out in February after they have chilled in the fridge for a month or two. Check back in  March to see how they do.

Well I did get a few tulips last year, and they were pretty for a couple of days. Most of them got droopy and fell over as if the stem could not support the flower. I didn't dig up the bulbs and they didn't come back this year; but I didn't really expect them to return. I probably won't buy these again, tulips just aren't good in this area, the summers are too hot and winters too mild. I would rather spend money on perrenials that come back each year.

The tulips are just starting to push up their buds.
I will post more images as they begin to flower.
