I would like to plant bulbs for the first time... advice?

i am moving into my first home at the END of October, and would like to plant some daffodils/ hyancinths/ tulips in my front yard... Is november too late to plant? I live in Vancouver, BC, so the weather is usually still just rainy then...

Your bulbs will be OK, especially if you add plenty of compost into their planting bed to get their roots growing quickly.



Here's a zone map %26amp; info on planting:

Spring blooming bulbs should be rooted before the ground freezes.



Water the bulbs following planting. This will help settle the soil in the planting bed plus provide needed moisture for the bulbs to start rooting. If you have enough rain, avoid over-watering since this can result in bulb rot.

Good luck! Have a beautiful spring. Hope this helps.
