What has Nana been up to in your garden this week?!! All you can see are funny holes all in the lawn.
Well Ruby, hopefully next spring you will be amazed at the fine display of spring flowers you will see through from February to June! I have planted all of 203 bulbs.
I've listed them here for future reference, because we will soon forget what I planted, but I will keep you guessing as to where. ;-)
25 single Snowdrops expected to flower February/March 4" high
60 Ruby Giant Crocus .... February/March 3"
8 fragrant dwarf Iris Reticulata 'Katherine Hodgkin' .... February/March 5"
35 Minnow Narcissi .... March/April 10"
10 Little Gem Narcissus ....March/April 8"
20 Angelique Tulips .... April/May 18"
30 Snake's Head Fritillaria .... April/May 8"
15 Purple Sensation Allium .... May/June 36"
I was particularly pleased to find the crocus' are called 'Ruby', even though they are a definite purple! No surprises here, I have planted them randomly in the lawn. You throw the bulbs out and dig each one a hole just where they land.
The grass will soon grow over the holes and then we will wait on into the new year to see the results of all that hard work.
Love and hugs, Nana x
