Hello,

My tulips ,daffodils and hyacinths did not flower for as long as they did last year;it is the second year I have had a lot of these bulbs and some I kept in their pots,some I took out ,cleaned and re potted.

Any advice please ?

Thanks,

Helen

I find if they're in pots for more than one season they don't flower as well, probably because they haven't got enough feed or water.

I think it is easier to put the bulbs into the garden when they finish flowering in the pots and start in the autumn potting up fresh bulbs for the spring display.

In any case feed them after flowers are over but while the leaves are still healthy, so they bulbs can be fed for next years flowers.
