Spring Flowers

Spring Flowers Spring flowering bulbs are planted in the fall. They require a freeze and period of dormancy -- when the spring thaw comes, they will be among the first to bloom and provide early season color in your garden, while your other plants are still developing. Because they can withstand (and even require) a frost, they are often referred to as hardy bulbs.
