I've heard that about planting a moth ball with the bulbs as well.

One time I even cut some buckwheat flowers and used as a filler for my bouqets! LOL! Of course no on knew what it was. We planted Dutch white clover around the blueberries. Would love to be able to save seeds because it is expensive but it's almost impossible to collect. Maybe that's why it's expensive? Hilarious!

I was getting it by the pound and it was only 6 or 7 dollars, but not a seed or nursery it was a garden supply store online and then I found it at a local feed and see for the same price but no shipping so I just buy local now. Green Grin!

Even my serviceberries have buds. They look so pretty with their dainty white flowers when they bloom. A cloud of white. Unfortunatly the blooms don't last long. But then the flowers are not the claim to fame of these shrubs. It is the berries which attract just about every bird around.

I dug mine up last year, they just would not grow! Only a few berries but they disappeared quickly!

Thanks, Karen. Those are my favorites right now. I love everybody's photos. Bob's Virginia Bluebells really look nice. I like the two-tinted flowers!
