@BetNC oh my that sure sounds like a disaster. I'm fortunate to only layering in pots as a winter project, something different to do. Easily enough to correct for next years activities.
I have a few daffs planted with a new crop of tulips, more so as a squirrel deterrent than from a beauty aspect.
@Deebie I planted annuals in my daffs to hide the foliage and I'm toying with the idea of daylilies in the tulip bed when their foliage dies back. I have a dozen or so daylilies in pots that need a spot of their own in the spring.
Deborah I also started a thread previously about interplanting bulbs amongst the daylilies and one poster said it was a mess when time to divide the bulbs or the daylilies for that matter. So I like groundcovers in between my daylilies now.
