Doctor Sahab,
Best to remove them and store as in ground they can catch fungus if moisture is present in summers.

Now I am planning to import some 20,000 corms for my long term research from VWS Holland. I have some 400 corms produced from last year crop, If any one needs for free can tell me. Varieties I have are Red Balance, White prosperity and Yellow Flevo Breezer. Red Balance resulted in highest number of florets for me.
Dear Gulzar,
Very nice effort, What are the temperatures in summer in your area where you have planted glads ?

Thanks Adnan. I'm always hoping to leave some bulbs in the ground. My freesias did well left in the ground but only problem is I can't space them every week so they bloom altogether when in ground. Also I was encouraged last year when my paperwhites survived but this season despite less rains than last season they have rotted.
