Fertilizers are not necessary in the first year of blossoming. Bulbs are natural storehouses of food due to which they don't need anything to flower the first year. For bulbs that are intended to naturalize that are coming into their second year, prepare an organic fertilizer such as compost or well-rotted cow manure, or a slow release bulb food on top of the soil.

If you do fertilize, never mix fertilizer in the planting hole because it can burn the roots. Also don’t try to add old bone meal as per what you know – dogs might want to dig up and get those before the bulbs do! So all you need to do is remember these simple methods to make sure your bulbs are growing the right way you want them!
