I know an auger is handy but even that many with aid is a lot of flowers.

I don't have an auger. I just plant them the old fashioned way. I dig holes!

I do have some early daffoldils with folliage up and some with buds showing. But for the most part, it is still too early for anything to be happening. But I can't wait!!!!!

I am so excited about seeing photos Rita. It is going to be amazing.

Thank you!!! Yes, it really should be something special this spring. The thing is I bought a lot of bulbs about three Falls ago but not nearly as many as this. But the spring show after that was so stunning. So I wanted that again, only even better. So I got carried away with myself and the ordering of bulbs.

The orderings wasn't so bad but of course then I actually had to plant all those bulbs.

It's the planting that would defeat me.

It took me darn near forever. The bulbs were ordered from different places as as each order came I started planting immediatly. So I started mid October and I was planting all of November until I finially got done at the very end of November. I hope I never order so many bulbs in one year again. It really was too much work to get them planted. But geez, it should be too stunning for words this spring.

I can only imagine the feeling of accomplishment when you got that last bulb in the ground.

The thing is I plan where I need more bulbs and exactly where they will all go before I order. I just think about how nice it will look ( I have this picture in my mind if what I want) and I don't think about all the work need to get it done. Then when the bulbs come, I am stuck and have to deal with it and get it done.

You are so focused.

I have to plan. If I just ordered without a plan there would be no place to plant them.

Makes sense.

Rita's discipline is inspiring, too. She has lots of us working out with her and trying new recipes and stuffs.

I love our workout support group that we have going on the Support For A Healthy Lifestyle Thread (Sandbox forum). Everyone come join us there even if you are not yet working out. We will try to get you going.

No auger? WOW

I wish I could be inundated with bulbs!

You can! All you have to do is order them next year and plant away next fall.

Don't forget to add Narcissus 'Tete-a-Tete' to your list of bulbs to buy. I am here to tell you, they multiply fast and furious.

Good to know. I think they do well here, so will try some.

Last fall I got one called Baby Boomer. It is one of those small ones. Don't have Tete-a-Tete yet. Not many places where I think those little ones would look good.
