If the flower blooms in the Spring, the bulbs should be separated in the Fall. However, this does not need to be done every year. It is recommended that bulbs are dug up and separated every 3 or 4 years. If the bulbs are growing short or unevenly, it is time to dig up the bulbs and separate them.

When to divide bulbs?

The best time to divide canna bulbs is in the fall. After the first frost, cut the stems down and dig up the tubers. Wash them and dust them with sulphur and put them away for the spring.

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.

Do tulips spread?

Sometimes chipmunks (and squirrels) will dig up bulbs that are close to the surface, and then store them underground in a different location. If a chipmunk is scared off before it can store the bulbs, the bulbs are abandoned in random spots and take root. Tulips do not spread on their own, except in the sense that they form new bulbs each year (much like a garlic clove turns into a head of garlic).
