I have never moved bulbs, but have tons to move in the yard. At one time an owner of this house planted nice flower beds, but then the previous owner's before us grassed in the beds! Bulbs are just popping out in odd spots now. They so far look a bit like the bulbs might need dividing too.
Ok, there is a point to this post. lol
I'm wondering...I am reading some info online and it says to move bulbs in the fall, but I can't see how moving them now would be bad. They are almost in bloom and I can't picture myself marking where they all are to dig them up in the Fall. I just don't want to move them and make them not bloom a year because I did something wrong. Sooooo, has anyone successfully moved bulbs in spring vs. fall?
**edited to add** this site has great pics of dividing bulbs if anyone else might be doing this and hasn't divided them before:
