My friend used to live in the mountains & said daffodils were the only flower the deer wouldn't eat. Her yard was a burst of yellow come spring!

We were lucky enough to see the daffodils and tulips in all their glory. So, I ordered daffodil and tulip bulbs, stored them in the refrigerator, and planted them in early December.

Out of 40 daffodil bulbs, I got 7 blooms. Out of 10 tulip bulbs, I got 6 blooms. Any suggestions or is there no hope for me on this zone?
