When plant prechilled spring bulbs, in the garden or in container. I mixed a handful of bulb-booster slow-release fertilizer into the well prepared soil. Plant them according to their size(s) depth recommendation on the labels. Every Spring I'd have a different 'annual spring bulbs' bed. Even here, the hot summer heat is too much to try to nuture the bulbs for the following year's return. It's worth it to me to treat them as annuals in our Southern gardens.

p.s. I mix about a table spoon of the granule fertilizer in each one square foot of planting. Then refill well prepared soil on top (without fertilizer added -- another word; mix your fertilizer to the bottome of the holes, and not on the refill soil on top/around the bulbs).
