Hi,

I planted a massave amount of tulips and dafFodils in my yard. I planted them about 12" deep. Someone told me that I should only plant them 5" deep. Should I go back and dig them up AND replant them or will they grow okay come Spring?

I'm Nervous that I will not see any flowers at all.

Doug says they'll come up and be fine. No problem. I've actually put them down quite a bit further than that to see what happens. :-) And I routinely put them down at 12-inches so I can garden more easily over top of them.

Relax
