Hi Jude, Dormant? I thought they are going to bloom in winter. (Actually it is spring here. We do not have winter here.) I live in Southern California. Many plants from Mediterranean basin and South Africa are growing season here, and ready to bloom. I found yellow flower buds of Tulipa sylvestris. Heirloom irises are in bloom. Some daffodils are in bloom.
