That's should be enough eye candy to get us through the winter months.

Dave I don't see your name ordering Kushi Maya from Ramona special offer for today.

I promised I would not buy any Spring bulbs this year. I go thru this every year in Fall.
Well the prices dropped to 50 % off locally and I could not resist so Lowes and ACE hardware got some of my money and I saved SOOOOOOO much So proud of myself.

And I only bought about 300 or so bulbs of ~ 12 things. Sooooooo I did show restraint. Now I just have to get them in the ground! So little time as I just finished winterizing my Crape myrtles 9 of em now.

Maybe tomorrow. Maybe not. it is SO freaking cold. Heh

Did he say that he showed restraint? I wonder how much he would have bought, if he hadn't?

I agree - and I thought I overdid!

@Deebie Four years ago I bought and planted 1,500 bulbs.
Some times I get carried away. Of course I always feel that way when I am on bulb number 799. Heh

Yep, he showed restrait. I can not imagine planting that many. Speaking of, it's now time to plant the few I have. Winter is on it's way here.

My kind of restraint! Just think of the money he saved!LOL

Gary - I guess that's how I shop for shoe - whether I needed them or not look at the money I save
David - are you buying bulbs to naturalize areas? Just curious - that's a LOT of bulbs!

Yes. But Tulips here are almost annuals due to deer, et cetera eating the bulbs. So lots of my purchases are for Daffodils which replace where I had tulips. This year I am only planting ~ 64 Tulips.

Since I live in a Dutch community that has an annual tulip festival, and I'm not Dutch, I plant daffodils and alliums and no tulips I'm sure all of your bulbs are gorgeous in spring

Planted 13 more pots to force from Brent and Becky's half off sale. These will go into tubs in the covered stairwell to basement.

They look great! Mine weren't potted up yet. Hope to get some potting soil tomorrow.

Yep, Eye candy for the dreary winter days ahead.

jmorth be sure to show pics when they bloom

ok.
The 1st bunch (in basement refrigerator) should start in Feb., the 2nd bunch (stairwell) by March.

Question - after they have been forced, can you then plant them outside in the Spring? Just curious.
