TulipsI planted lots of them in tubs last autumn and they were beautiful this spring. But now they have gone over and I want to replant the tubs.
Are tulips like daffodils and best left to die back naturally?

I think they're like daffodils, in fact they are when I think about it. My garden has some beautiful tulips and the last people didn't plant any so they must have been ok left in the ground.

Don't know if I've done right or not, but I've taken most of my tulips out of my little border ready for summer stocks. Left some in, but all the bulbs have split into even more bulbs! So, hopefullt if I store them I'll have lots next year!

We always mean to lift tulips but never remember and they just rot in our garden
