With a little planning, you can bring the joy of spring into your home with bulbs that bloom indoors! While paperwhites and amaryllis arrive ready to grow, all other bulbs must be chilled before planting indoors for winter blooms. This cooling process, called “forcing,” mimics winter dormancy and coaxes the bulbs to bloom indoors. Learn more about forcing bulbs.
