Bulbs in Bloom- so now what?

Now that your bulbs are up and looking beautiful there are
a few things you can do to keep them looking gorgeous this
year
and in years to come.
*Provide good, basic care. Bulbs have simple requirements
and if these are met they will perform beautifully. Simply
keep the soil moist while the bulbs are actively growing
and keep the area relatively weed free.
*   Satisfy their hunger. Just like us, bulbs flourish if
well fed. This is simply a matter of feeding bulbs twice
annually - once at planing time (Autumn) and again just
after flowering. Simply spread some fertilizer over the top
of the soil and water in.
*   Continue caring, even after the flowers finish. After the
flowers have finished, nip off just the head, feed the
bulbs and continue watering until the foliage dies down. By
doing this you are helping your bulbs build up their
strength for flowering in the following year.
