Yes, with the tulips, suggest you pot them up in clumps of 5 or 6 to a pot and tuck them away in the back of your fridge if you have room. You know, back there where the leftovers sit until they get moldy . . ?? Rolling my eyes.

For those you don't have room for, choose the north side of the house, where they will be in the shade of the building the longest, so stay cool as long as possible into spring. When you water them, water sparingly with a watering can and add some ice cubes to the water to cool the soil around the bulbs a little extra.

You'll at least get bloom this spring, and maybe for a few more seasons until they figure out where they're at.
