Leawood, I'm glad you joined in. It was your instructions from last year that inspired me to try burying containers in leaf mulch, and it worked rather nicely for me. Tulips are well under way here in Tennessee. The picture shows one of mine from ten days ago (March 27). I am interested in comparing our respective winter low temperatures. This may have something to do with which method will work in which areas. Last winter our lowest temperature was about 15 F. We can get colder, but this was still a rather sharp, long lasting winter. I didn't bury my containers deep enough in the leaf mulch, and I lost some bulbs. But still, they did fairly well. How cold did it get in KS?
