Cutting the green?

Tacoma, WA(Zone 8a)

Which of the spring bulbs and be trimed before they die back naturally?

Taylor, TX(Zone 8b)

I might be wrong about this but I think if you wanna grow them again they need the leaves to store energy for next year. anybody else?

Winchester, KY(Zone 6a)

Thats right. Cut the leaves before they're finished photosynthesizing and storing food for next years bloom, and all you'll get is leaves next year. Everything except Daffodils seem to die back pretty fast, but Daffs can be a sloppy pain. I've tried to place mine behind daylilies so the mess is camoflaged(sp?).
