    Kind of the opposite tone to the normal question!

    This weekend I'll be planting all of my goodies in the corner section of my garden. I will then lay down some anti weed mesh, and bark chippings mulch to keep everything under control.

    Thinking ahead to next early spring, who doesn't love the first signs of life from the daffodils so I wanted to liberally plant some bulbs and let them do their magic next year. But would they start to sprout now? The random ones around my garden are now in full dying off mode.

    If you have those bulbs then I would plant them out Cardinal Red., they are unlikely to flower although varieties available now that flower from late summer to early summer. If they sprout then feed them. Hopefully they will revert to normal growing and flowering next spring :)
