I put my bulbs in plastic azalea pots (using moisture-retention potting soil) and bury them in a border garden in the fall, covered with mulch. In early March I dig them up and place them in my urns. I've had great luck with Princess Irene, Apricot Beauty and Calgary. I find the taller varieties don't work as well in my urns and tend to get wind damage and look unsightly.
