Fall is the best time to move them. You might want to add a little bit of bulb fertilizer to the new location.

I found a "Lily" *didn't know what kind it was, only that it was somekind of lily* last year growing in the towns' compost piles in the last parts of the fall... I brought it home,
plopped it into some peatmoss I had in an old swimming pool and covered it with a bit of chopped leaves, and thought I'll hope for best.....
It survived beautifully and bloomed wonderfully.
So, my guess who be fall time would be perfect for them...
Good luck and let us know how it all turned out..

Thanks for the help and I was afraid it was the right time...I dug tulip bulbs today, I am one of those people who plant for effect...LOL the tulips were beautiful for 3 years and I had many compliments on them ![[clappy]](im/graemlins/claps.gif)
But they have become over crowed because I did plant them too close on purpose "for effect". ![[flower]](im/graemlins/flower.gif)
Anyway it took 4 hours of hand digging to get them all out of the bed...now to sort the bulbs and find places for half of them within the next week ![[thinker]](im/graemlins/idea.gif)
I have bulb food to use when I replant the tulips and the tiger lilies. So far since Saturday I have cleaned half of the veggie garden, The peony bed and cut them back, 2 different iris beds, besides the tulip bed. I only have 3 more beds to do and finish the veggie garden...YIPPIE...BUT I am getting TOOO old for all this work!!!! ![[Big Grin]](im/biggrin.gif)
