By examining the characteristics of the plant's foliage and blooms, you can determine the specific type of bulb plant you have in your garden.

Can other plants be planted around green tulip leaves or do leaves need go turn yellow before planting around them?
Yes, you can plant other flowers around tulips when their leaves are still green. Be careful not to dig into the tulip bulb when planting the new flowers. When tulip leaves are yellow and brown and drying, you can give them a small tug and they'll come free from the bulb. Don't remove them while still green - they're making food for the bulb to store for next year's blooms.

How do daffodils grow?
Daffodils grow in the spring from a bulb. They do have seeds, but it takes a good five years to get a flower from a daffodil seed, so most people plant the bulbs. They need to be in a well drained area, in sun or partial shade, and the bulb can adapt to most soils. Once the temperature is right, the bulb will send up its one cotyledon and from that leaves will make their way up and out to the light to soak up energy and make food for the bulb and expectant flowers. They last a full month or so, depending on the variety. When the flowers are finished, you leave the leaves in place for about a month. After they have started turning yellow, all of the food that they can make has been sent to the bulb. They they disappear until the next spring. Each year the bulb will multipy to produce new plants. They are very simple plants to have and they need very little tending.Daffodils grow in the spring from a bulb.

Why is the Bulb of the onion plant so big?
It is big because before leaves sprout, the bulb is the source of food because without leaves, there is no photosynthesis thus no food unless the bulb feeds the plant (which as I said before, it does). The bulb of the onion also stores energy. Hope this satisfies!
