I live in Virginia, if that makes a difference

Is it ok to plant spring flowering bulbs, like anenomes, and iris in the spring?
You CAN, but they won't bloom until the next year. They should really be planted in the fall, though.
Reply:Anemones go in in the fall. Iris is not a bulb. They are a corm, and can go in anytime.
