Spring blooming bulbs have a rich history full of tales and trivia and there are many varieties that have withstood the test of time. To be considered an heirloom bulb, a variety must have been grown for at least 50 years and have a history of its own. Many heirloom varieties are better suited to the home garden than the fancy new hybrids and most of them are truly perennial. There are thousands of varieties of tulips, daffodils and other spring bulbs with an amazing array of colors, bloom shapes, heights and seasons of bloom. Of those thousands, there are hundreds that have proven themselves, over and over again.
