Re: Bulb planting

We've got various daffodils the big ones, some mini ones for the pots and fragrant tete e tete for near the back door. We are planting them in tall pots this year because Labrador tail decimated them in the short pots we used last year.

Actually we've moved a lot because of that tail

Re: Bulb planting

I bought a bag of Rip Van Winkles for my tubs and hanging baskets. I will plant pansies/violas on top to give some winter colour. I have last years bulbs in the garage having dried them off, so they will be planted in the border along with the Anenome Blanda I bought last week.
