Bulb mania

by Rosemarie Hanson on October 29, 2004

I have planted 400 crocuses (half vernus), 60 daffodils (Tete a Tete and Earlicheer (20ct on sale for no money at Wayside)), 100 iris reticulata(Harmony), and about 15 hyacinths (L’Innocense) so far. Tomorrow I get my Brent and Beckys order – 50 N. Sweetness and 50 N. some early blooming jonquil linnaeus or campernelli something, and a hyacinth called Chestnut. Have trouble finding homes for everyone, and hard to believe that this was a whittled down list. Curse myself for making more work for myself, but hoping it will be worth it come March and April.

About

Until recently, Rosemarie Hanson gardened in the alkaline soil of New York's North Country. Now she gardens in the Finger Lakes region of NY, where the soil is acid and the deer are a plague! She is particularly interested in fragrant plants, old garden roses, tulips, gardening for kids, and kitchen gardens.

There’s one good thing about snow, it makes your lawn look as nice as your neighbor’s.
