Bulbs: Bulbs in Pots?, 1 by Geo1ThiChi

I am still somewhat new to DG and posted this message in two other forums before I found this one. I think I should have posted it here to start with.

I ran into a bulb sale on mixed asiatic lilies, tulips, bearded iris, crocus, ect. and bought a bunch of them. I plan to put them into pots and try to sell them at our small roadside market next spring. My question is, what size pots to use, how many to put in each pot, how deep do I plant them, ect.? We have a thousand or more bulbs of all different kinds.

I retired two years ago and this is a hobby for me and my wife (Thi Chi). We have grown and sold tomato and pepper plants to friends and neighbors for years but this is our first real try at flowers.

Thanks for any help you can give
