Recommend. Planted on one side of mound as tester. Will definitely plant the other side this fall. Note: I had many crocuses and tulips from Costco already planted so my display may be thicker than normal

Very colorful display this spring.

Submitted 2 years ago

By Kit

From New York

I planted bulbs last fall. To prevent squirrels from digging up bulbs I covered area with Tulle fabric and anchored it in place with rocks. I removed the tulle fabric this spring when bulbs began to sprout with great results. Tulle can be purchased in bulk for cheap on eBay. It has many uses in the garden.

Not too noticable

Submitted 3 years ago

By Jeremy

From Tulsa, OK

So I ordered 1 pack of these. It seemed like a few of the bulbs produced flowers which was nice. Please make note that the mature height is 6" So you aren't going to get much bang. You will want to plant several packages to make any kind of impression. Would I buy more, probably not... there are better packs out there that give you more bang for buck. I did plant all of the bulbs within a 3'x3' space to try to get a good feel for growth and variety.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

This is my second year utilizing these - Very happy with the results. Vibrant, varied blooms. The only challenge is the squirrels - The squirrels love these bulbs, dig them up.

Bulbs that survive fall "Squirrel siege" are amazing blooms!

Submitted 4 years ago

By Adam

From Chicago, IL

I loved these bulbs. The neighborhood squirrels also seemed to love these planted bulbs. They relocated and took for themselves many of the bulbs planted in fall.

One of the spring survivors that the local grey squirrels didn't relocate and take for themselves in fall!

Love the varied bloom times and colors!

Submitted 5 years ago

By Liza

From Des Moines IA

I planted 200 of these, but unfortunately I don't think I got to see all of them bloom because the squirrels found some of them tasty. I've had blooms for over a month now, and they're not stopping yet! Will be planting more this fall!

Lovely mix!

Submitted 6 years ago

By Greenhouse worker

From Central Wyoming

A good rule of thumb is to plant any bulb 2 to 3 times the height of the bulb. So if a bulb is 1 inch tall plant it 3 inches deep. It was fun to have little bursts of color all over the yard.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
