Now that this thread popped up, thought I'd update - our bulbs are coming in great and are a cheery addition before the perennial pollinator flowers are grown in more by later spring. We mixed early, mid and late-season bulbs, crocus, hyacinth, daffodils, tulips and irises. We planted them mostly by opening trenches and then placed them in spots by bloom time and height, quite densely. Used Espoma Bulb Tone. I'll note that the tulips we planted 2-3 years ago bloomed earlier this year than the ones we planted last fall, likely because the earlier planted ones are established and recharged with plenty of sun the last two summers (we leave all the leaves up to recharge and plant Wave Petunias between them to keep the area looking nice all summer through fall).
