Still Need Bulbs?

by Paula (Midwest) on November 20, 2011

daffodils, tulips | birdsandbloomsblog.com | paula bonelli

There is still time to plant – you can plant until the ground is frozen! And don’t forget to save a few bulbs for forcing indoors come late winter when we’re all ready for a little spring love.

Holland Bulbs is overstocked and offering deep discounts. Order by today to get great deals and your order ships tomorrow!

For those of you that already planted, tell me what you planted by leaving a comment below. :-) I put in some specialty tulips, more allium, blaze orange hyacinth, and double daffodils.

40 Allium moly luteum (4/5 cm)
40 Anemone coronaria de Caen (4/5 cm)
60 Brodiaea laxa Queen Fabiola (4/5 cm)
20 Iris Hollandica mix (6/7 cm)

I also want to find some inexpensive paperwhites for the dining room!

Awesome deal, Katherine. Thanks for sharing! I love daffs – so pretty, and thankfully, deer resistant! :-)

Oh my….Now you are even tempting me! I seriously have planted 1,400 bulbs this fall. I finished getting my last 40 blue anemone in yesterday. Its going to be crazy beautiful in my backyard in the spring! I live in Martinsville, IN. email me if you would like a tour haha…. Stop by my website and check out my flowers–they are on the guestpage.

I am alittle bummed though. My fav flowers are lillies and I planted them to early. Some are 1-2 inches tall (and the deer have gotten them) I sure hope they bloom next year for me!

Thanks for the tempt!!!!

Thanks for stopping by and sharing, Connie. Wow – 1400 bulbs?! That’s going to make for one amazing spring! I don’t think I have enough yard for that many bulbs. LOL
Your photog is beautiful and if I’m in the Martinsville area, I may just take you up on that tour. :-D
