Spring flowering
bulbs (hardy bulbs) such as
Snowdrops,
Crocus,
Daffodils,Tulips,
and
Hyacinths
need
a cold
period during the winter to jump start their growth cycle so that they
will flower
in the spring. They can be planted until the
first frost. In general spring flowering
bulbs will grow best in climate zones 4-8. Spring flowering bulbs
normally
start blooming in February with
snowdrops
and end in June with the
alliums.
