You can still plant bulbs for Spring bloom!
The ideal time to plant spring-flowering bulbs in our area is Fall, but if you've missed the fall planting window, you can still plant spring-flowering bulbs in late winter or early spring when the ground is workable and not frozen solid.
Note that planting Spring flowering bulbs this late may result in delayed or erratic blooming, as the bulbs may not have enough time to establish roots before the growing season begins. It's still worth a try however!
Additionally, some bulbs require a period of cold stratification (exposure to cold temperatures) in order to bloom, so planting them too late may not provide sufficient chilling hours (i.e. tulips, daffodils, crocus, and hyacinths). Some bulbs you might try are:
Allium
Agapanthus
Anemone
Iris
Crocosmia
If you've missed the optimal Fall planting window for spring-flowering bulbs, you can still plant them late and hope for some blooms, but it's best to plan ahead and plant them during the recommended Fall planting window for the best results.
