Hi Cane
I've tulips in my front garden that my father planted many years ago and they still flower beautifully.
I think it depends on the variety though as some that I've planted haven't come up again. Maybe it's their position and the soil.
I'm all for leaving bulbs in the soil.
Good luck with the garden
Take care
Von

Sometimes the field mice get them.
