time for planting bulbs

paulakparker
16 years ago

We moved to Tullahoma and are planning a bulb garden in our yard. I've never planted bulbs before and only know they are supposed to go in sometime in the fall. However, I don't know if I'm supposed to wait until the temps cool off a bit more.

Thanks!

Paula
