Should I dig them up once they have flowered ?
Found this on the net as I had no idea.
The bulbs need to be dug up and divided about every three years, or when they stop flowering well. Dig them up in early summer or in fall before frost. Break apart the new bulbs, discard the old, and replant the remaining bulbs at the proper spacing.
I have never done this with mine & they are still flowering each year & they are old.
