Texas Gardening: What bulbs (if any) don't have to be lifted to rebloom, 1 by SteveIndy

Interesting, okus....I bought some glads the first year I bought my house, and they have bloomed for three years running. I planted more the next year, and virtually all returned. I bought a few dozen more last pring, but I think I'll stop since they seem to come back. I love the way they look, but they get so top heavy they fall over easily, and I had some get nearly 6 ft. tall. The bloom time also seems kind of short. I live in N. Ft Worth very close to you. I dug some of them up, and most had a new corm replacing the old as you said, but I had one in which five new corms were glued together on top of what used to be the old one. The first site I bought them from, Tulip World (a Dutch online retailer), indicated that they did not naturalize or perennialize, but I have found that this was totally not the case for me in this area. Below is a picture of some in my back yard.
