I have in my possession 24 Chameleon Flower and 36 Lilly of Valley Bulbs. I have not prepared the soil (shame on me)Can these be planted in a pot and left outside over the Winter or maybe in a pot in a cold garage? ANY SUGGESTIONS ?

What is your location, JoyceP? I have planted bulbs in Michigan as late as February (during a thaw) and they came up fine in the spring. Didn't do any prep, just dug some holes.

Thankx.. I'm in zone 6 in NY...I'm a nubie to this. I'm doing a job at a friend's house (which I'm getting paid for) so I do not want to mess it up...It's warm here today (maybe too warm to be planting the bulbs) so maybe I'll just go ahead and dig those holes.

Hi JoyceP, Well! you have got me scraching my head. First the Lilley of the vally is not a bubl it is a rhizome or roote and is grown by devision or seed. It is best grown near shubs or trees. They are not easy to establis. They need humus-rich soil that is slightly acid. I see no reason why you cannot grow them in a box 18"x12"x9"deep. Fill the box with with Azalea or Rhododendron compost. Cover with about 1-11/2" of compost water-in but keep damp not wet.
