question about watering bulbs AFTER bloom

Ok so I've got a lot of spring bulbs that are blooming or are ready for bloom. I know to fertilize after bloom and leave the foliage, but not sure about the water needs of the various types. The reason I ask is because my entire yard in on drip emitters, and I'd like to avoid having to move the setup if the bulbs can take the water. Here is what I have

Daffs

Dutch Iris

Ranunculus

Freesia

Amarylis

Various Lilies

Muscari

Anemone

Also, some Daffs and Dutch Iris in pots, that could be, if needed, hand watered.

I should also mention that after years of composting, the soil that these bulbs are in is very drainable.

Thanks all!

Matt
