Bulb Cage
Protect bulbs from critter damage
Exclusive. We adore Tulips and Lilies, in the garden and in the vase. Unfortunately, some gardeners can't share our enthusiasm, because voles or gophers feast on their bulbs. We've now developed a cage that appears to foil burrowing critters. It's 12in square by 6in high and made of galvanized heavy-gauge steel wire, welded into a 1/2in mesh. Dig a hole to the required depth for the bulbs, set up the cage, place the bulbs, and backfill. The cage holds up to 5 Asiatic Lily bulbs and from 9 to 24 Tulips (depending on how extravagant a display you desire). If you've abandoned Tulips and Lilies because of subterranean varmints, here's an opportunity to enjoy these beauties again.
