Took up some corms about a month ago and they have all dried out.
Took up the remainder yesterday - so really want to know how to keep them over winter to replant in a new site next year
Any advice please

Clean em up a bit, remove any soil and loose/dead stuff. Then dig out a nice clean Shoe box from the bottom of you're wardrobe. Take the old shoes down to the recycle (oops going a bit off topic here)
and store them in a cool dry place, with the lid on.. (i.e. The garage - if you have one )


Then forget all about them till you come to clean out the garage, as I did and found them on Sunday. :oops:

Or do what I do, and keep the shoes until they're back in fashion (what comes around, goes around).
But apart from that I agree clean up, dry out and store.  Good luck, Mrs Bouquet.  PS:  You could recycle shoes my way, especially if they are Jimmy Choos etc, I would be grateful..  Mrs Bouquet

thanks
no jimmy choos here! too old to be teetering around on shoes that cost more than my mortgage  Gladioli will last longer anyhow and probably give more pleasure
