No Patti. I'm a lazy gardener. I just leave them in year round. Bulbs, corns, and tubers. The only ones that don't like that are the daffodils and the narcissus. They get weak and only make leaves.

Now I wish I kept the dahlia tubers. There were some really pretty ones. Just got tired of the powdery mildew and aphids and tossed them all out one year. these two I somehow missed.

Galdioli and freesias do really well here too and I don't dig those up either. They multiply on their own.
