#bulbs

3 posts3 participants0 posts today
A lawn full of all kinds of colorful, wild bulbs in the central reservation in our street. The red-yellow tulips are the most striking, they stick out above blue and white muscari and low little pink tulips. Something to try out yourself in your lawn or in a part of it. They may not be mowed for a while when they have finished blooming. But then you have such a beauty every year again. #flower #flowers #garden #gardening #bloomscrolling #bulbs #tulips #bloemen #blumen #fleurs #foto

Working my way through #covid19 Yep I was fully #vaxxed got it anyway. And it wasn't the least bit mild. 3 days of fever over #102. Today 5th just feels like a chest cold. But as any good #gardener would when expecting a week of rain. And having sprouting bulbs arrive monday. I went out and planted over 200 #bulbs on my hands and knees. Mixed #crocus , #iris reticulata Harmony, grape #hyacinth, PurpIe Emperor #allium , and #snowflakes. Still to plant are blue shades #anemone blanda and a few species tulips.

And also two colors of bachelor button seeds.

I note grass and #lupines coming up in the #fieldofdreams #wildlowermeadow #gardening #GardeningMastodon @gardening

I don't have an pictures from today but here's a recent sunrise.

Planted 125 total of crocuses, snowdrops, hyacinth, and tulips from the bulb order today. Also had probably 200 daffodil bulbs that I dug up when cleaning a bed where they and the crocuses plus some irises, mountain bluet, and a clump of phlox with peonies in it were transplanted.

Some daffodils back into the bed they came from but spread out, then there were some put in 5 big pots, and circles around two posts in the lawn.
