ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for planting and maintaining bulberous and tuberous plants is described. The apparatus includes a bulb container having a top open end and a bottom closed end for planting the bulb, and a placement container having a top open end and a bottom closed end for preserving the hole that is created upon removal of the bulb container. The bulb and placement containers may be color coded to correspond to a particular bulb. The method for planting and maintaining a bulb includes placing the bulb and soil in the bulb container, planting the bulb container, removing the bulb container at the end of the bulb's active growing season, replacing the bulb container with the placement container to preserve the hole left upon removal of the bulb container, storing the bulb container during the bulb's dormant season, removing the placement container at the start of the bulb's active growing season, and replacing the placement container with the corresponding bulb container.
