How to transfer flowers that already bloomed into a new garden?(i really dont have a green thumb)?
You'll want to prepare the new garden for the plants, then -carefully- dig up the plants. Try to keep the root ball (the big bundle of roots usually right under the plant) as complete as possible. Settle the plant into a hole in the new ground, cover with dirt, and water frequently. If you're careful and keep most of the root ball intact, your plants should be fine. :)





Good luck!
Reply:first off dig the appropriate spaced out holes for each bulb in the new area u'll plant them in. then carefully dig about 4-5 in. below the surface of the plant and be aware of the bulb, try not to hack at it, then lift gently and transfer. after replanted then water them and put fertilizer over the soil.
Reply:Get a nice, healthy rootball when you dig up the flowers. The less you expose the roots, the more likely a successful transplant. There is still that likelihood of shock so if you can wait until the petals fall, you'll do even better transplanting. Good luck! You are on your way to developing a green thumb!

Happy gardening to you. :o)
Reply:I prepare a hole in the new place, saving the dirt. I take a large shovel and lift the WHOLE plant and gently transfer it to the new home for it and use the soil I've saved to fill the old hole. This may be rather unorthodox but it works.
