Yes for the trench method! I inherited all these old but good red and yellow tulpis my parents planted in the late 1950s. They come back reliably every year because they have pulled themselves under over all the years, I dug deep and about 15-18 inches deep found the bulbs, wich I thinks is remarkable. But there are so many new and interessing varieties that every November I find myself digging trenches for the bulbs. This thing with an auger or digging one hole after the other would drive me crazy. Hope your daffs are not going nuts like mine, I ran out of space after 2 years. But they get better and bigger over the years. Happy gardening! Stay safe! Hanni

How do you protect against rodents? PA surely has squirrels and other which feast on tulip bulbs? I usually plant rodent resistant fall bulbs but am trying tulips for the first time this year. I put them in -rodent cages- I made from chicken wire but won-t know til Spring if they make it

Do you rotate your tulip beds? I have read that there are tulip diseases that stay active in soil up to seven years. My garden is much smaller than yours and I am trying to figure out how to grow all of the tulips I want, but still be able to rotate them. Thank you!

This spring I ended up cutting back the unsightly daffodil foliage shortly after they bloomed. I noticed some people tie up their daffodils with rubber bands nds- does this actually work?

As always great information. I planted my daffodils to close not realizing it made a difference as I-ve seen tulips planted close. Will have to change next year

You have certainly packed them in! The display in spring is going to be quite something. Good luck with the rest of the bulb planting, it is hard work.

You always share such great tips! -Thank you.
Just curious. Why do most people treat tulips as an annual? I-m in zone 7A?
