Keep watering containers after die back?

I have a couple of pots that had anemomes and tulips in. They’ve almost died back now. Do I need to keep watering them? Thank you!

They don’t want to get desiccated but don’t need regular watering; just faintly damp. You could lift the bulbs out and store them for next year (not something I’ve ever done, I tend to plant stuff out into the garden when it’s finished).

Thanks. I think I might plant in the garden. Do I wait for them to completely die back before doing that?
