    Hello! My name is Bethany and I grow things in my rooftop container garden in Chicago, zone 6a. I’ve been container gardening for four years and am by no means an expert, just someone who enjoys sharing their garden journey.
    In this video, I'm digging up my tulips which are done blooming for the Spring and transplanting them down into the parkway in hopes that they'll bloom again next year.

    Wanted to give an update that the bulbs I transplanted into the parkway have all sprouted this year! This will be my plan going forward.

      Have you tried the same but take small side bulbs (divisions) and grow them bigger elsewhere? I have some that have divided like crazy, but too small to flower.

    Appreciate your tips on replanting bloomed out tulip bulbs . My wife has been begging me for several years for tulips and hyacinth.. I surprised her with 2 baskets of bright yellow baskets of tulips a d one purple lavender hyacinth s . They're dead leafed now and l should plant them in one of my 4 gardens . I love growing thing's .
    Except butterfly bushes . I lost 2 deep purple hybrids . Lowes gave me my money back amen . $39 a piece . Ouch ! So I'll plant the bulbs
    and hope they come back blooming beautifully . She was so happy . 57 yrs together , about time .😂 Ever grow redhot guava popsicle flowers . 3 yr 👍
    Tks for the tips . At 77 you're never too 0:24 old to learn ❤

    I cut off the green leaves on my tulip bulbs last Spring planted annuals on top of them.
    They bloomed beautifully this Spring!

    Great job! Nice to see your channel growing!!! Well deserved!! You rock it in the rooftop garden zone!! I think being in Chicago those tulips should be fine in ground! I love that you have petunias already planted! Im working on a shade garden on one side of my house I planted some heuchera and a Japanese maple and some hostas. Wish me luck!! ~Genevieve

      Me too! I’m hoping this method works bc it will be the best for freeing up space in my garden but still keeping bulbs year after year.

    A lot of people treat their tulips like annuals, because they're much less likely to re-bloom the following years. Your bulbs look very healthy, with tons of roots & the bulbs seem large & some have developed bulbils, so you must've fed them well. They might just re-bloom.
    in my Z5B, where it goes down to -17 or so for a few days every winter, so I must plant them 3x the size of the bulb, so at least 6" deep.

      In England Tulips always re bloom when left in the ground or lifted and replanted.

      @@delfine7163 Do you have a milder climate? 15 or more years ago, I planted tons of different types of Narcissus, that bloom over a couple months, plus maybe a dozen Tulips, a few Hyacinths, scattered Clumps of Crocus, Chinodoxa Glory of the Snow, & numerous Grape Hyacinth - mostly purple & a few white. I love looking forward to them every spring, & they do not disappoint.
      Somehow, a few years ago, I was blessed with the appearance of Snow Drops in front, now a densely growing patch. I had found a patch of snow drops growing way in the in back yard, over 120' away, up near the stone wall, when we were shopping for a house in '97. Did birds eat some of their seeds & drop them there in front? It seems the only way possible.
      Some of the tulip greens still show up, but only a few still produce flowers. I had enriched the soil of the entire, formerly all grass banking with cow manure aged with compost, & that had been fine for the ground covers, perennials & small shrubs, for years. I filled the banking with spring bulbs too, adding bone meal or "Bulb Booster" in each planting hole at the time, & haven't fed them at all since.
      Unfortunately I lost a lot of ground covers & fewer bulbs bloom there on one side, because the banking became shaded too much by letting a seedling of a Weeping European Birch sapling stay. It was pretty for years, but is really too large there now.
      The entire bed needs to be dug up & renovated soon. I'm hoping to spray the PI with diluted 30% horticultural vinegar, so I can work in there, & then redistribute the bulbs currently on the front banking into other beds, as I don't like to see so many dying leaves at one time in front.
      All that digging will allow me to also remove most of the PI roots. With everything else out of there except for a few shrubs, I'm hoping I can spray every new PI leaf & vine that continues to try to grow there.
      I'm building new areas for the spring bulbs in back on the slope, so there'll be Rhododendrons behind the terraced beds, filled with spring blooms, with some new & some relocated plugs of ground covers: pale purple moss Phlox, Iberis, Sandwort, etc..
      It'll be quite a project. I'll likely add more tulips, & try feeding them once or twice per year this time.

    Another great video! If you’re ever back in Indiana I’d love to give you a tour of the large estate that I manage, it’s been featured in Architectural Digest. The property is in Michigan near the IN border, their main house is in Lincoln Park. The gardens here are so incredible!!!!

    Is there any recommended way to cut them out after blooming so they can be ready to be moved ? Also how many days you waited after the bloom was gone to transplant them? Thanks

    • @ChicagoGardener
      @ChicagoGardener  2 года назад

      I’m not sure if there’s a recommended way, but I just snipped down the stem close to the leaves. I think I maybe waited 3 or 4 days after cutting the flowers to transplant them but that was just bc that worked best with my schedule. So far it seems like they transplanted well!

    Me thinks I'm gonna plant my flower bulbs in individual containers, not in my beds which I don't have much space & sun is limited. I've never planted flower bulbs. So you have to remove every winter? I didn't know that but makes sense I guess. I'm in temperate weather. Oregon coast.

    • @ChicagoGardener
      @ChicagoGardener  Год назад

      I plant in the fall, usually around early November, and then remove them after the flowers are done and replant them down in the parkway! That usually happens early May.
