When the leaves yellow, dig up the bulbs, clip the plant back to the base of the bulb, brush off the soil and set the bulbs in a cool, dry place to dry out. The bulbs store best in a netted bag placed in a dark, well-ventilated place at 65 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
In colder climates, plant hardy bulbs as soon as possible after purchase. In milder areas, plant in late October or early November after the soil cools â if you need to store them before planting, keep them in a cool location. In warm-winter climates, you may need to pre-chill hardy bulbs before planting. Refrigerate them in a container with a lid for 8 to 10 weeks. Shop for Bulbs.
