Can I leave a tulip bulb in the ground all year in jax, fl?

Won't it get cold enough in winter and then grow again in spring?

If the ground does not freeze for the winter the bulb will have too much water and rot. Dig them up and re-plant in the spring.
Reply:My neighbor and I leave ours all year long. Some for many years, they bloom every spring, we live in N. CA. where it freezes in the winter and can get up to 111% in the summer.
Reply:You can leave a tulip bulb in the ground it's warm enough there
Reply:It would probably rot. Most people treat tulips as annuals and buy new ones every year.
