My tulip bulb bubbleSKRiderFAN, I am not kidding, I do have two boxes of tulip bulbs in the basement.
My wife planted the tulips early spring, after the bloom, my wife dug them out,(you get more every year) put them in the basement for next year, on the same patch she would plant other seasonal flowers, she says, if you are not planning to plant anything else, you can leave them tulips in the ground, next season they will grow again by themselves
As the Ancient part, depends on how you lived, I hope you lived a more corlourful life than me,LOL
because I lived day to day, day by day, and day after day, I became ancient before I realized it.LOL
on the other hand, depend on who(what) you have for a wife, you can become ancient sooner. LOL CHEERS GLTA
