Do Allium Bulbs Need Prechilling
Q: Do allium bulbs need prechilling before planting? This is my first foray into alliums and I’m a little confused on when to plant them.
A: Unlike tulips, allium bulbs do not need to be kept in the cold before they will flower. You can plant them any time you find healthy bulbs on sale.
