Hi All
Lovely article on tulips and spring bulbs in the Dallas paper today. Author cites a "bulb exporter" in Dallas who says there is no need to chill tulips bulbs here...just keep them in a cool garage. Yikes!
First my brain went to "who exports bulbs from Dallas...." Then I let it gooooo
Then my brain went to "who has a cool garage in Dallas?"
Finally I thought about all those folks who will believe and get only a few blooms from a bunch of bulbs.
Anyone ever tried to grow tulips here without chilling? I only did once... :(
