The clumps are growing and spreading.<\/p>\n<p>I think I have three or four areas in my garden where these lovelies bloom their pretty little heads off.  I must remember to dig up the tulips when they are finished bloom this spring and plant some of the new bulbs in other areas so I&#8217;ll have even more clumps of fringed tulips. I meant to do that last year, but didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>If I&#8217;m smart I&#8217;ll dig up some of my other spring flowers and tulips and move th new bulbs and corms to other areas of the garden as well.<\/p>\n<p><em>BTW please read the post above this one as I&#8217;ve made a suggestion that GTS members check in here each week when they&#8217;ve made a new Green thumb post.
