You can if you want to, but it isn't necessary. It is better to either leave them, or dig and transplant in the autumn. If you do want to store the bulbs, pack them in damp peat moss in an airy mesh bag and keep in a cool place.

Does lily reproduce the same way as tulip?
Tulips planted in appropriate conditions tend to multiply and divide, and can be dug up and separated at will. This can be done annually. Lily bulbs also multiply, and it is recommended that a gardener pro-actively dig up lily bulbs every two or three years, and plant the expanded inventory of bulbs in a different location.

How do you re-pot your tulips?
You can try to replant the bulbs when the petals have dropped back - plant the bulbs with the leaves still on (you can remove the flower stems), in a sunny location. Fertilize with a bulb fertilizer or bone meal. Realize, however, that forced bulbs like this are most likely "spent" and will probably not bloom the following spring.

Do daisies die in the winter?
When a flowering plant turns into a bulb it does not die. It simply changes its form so that the flowering part of the plant is sheltered within a series of protective layers. A hardy bulb, such as a tulip bulb, can survive the winter if it is planted in the fall. A tender bulb, such as a begonia, cannot survive the winter and must be planted in the spring. If you are replanting tender bulbs, you must dig up the bulbs in the fall and store them in a cool dry place for the winter.
