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.
What differentiates a bulb from a perennial plant is that the nourishment for the flower is stored within the bulb itself.…There is something miraculous about the way that a little grenade of dried up tissue can explode into a complete flower.
