Our house is the only one on the block – either side is a vacant lot – one of which is loaded with grape hyacinths in the springtime.  I noticed when out raking leaves this morning that I have a bunch of volunteers coming up all over in the grass.  I don't believe these bloom except in the spring.

Question – I would like these – but not in my lawn.  Would this be the proper time to dig up the bulbs or should I just leave them be and move them in the fall?

Thanks to all of you smartern' me!

I would dig up a lot from the vacant lot too., if the owner doesn't mind.

Barb, now is the time to plant bulb flowers, and I have a lot that were gathered along the wayside and of course from friends.

Don't cry because it's over—smile because it happened!
