Costco!!! So the planner in me was napping when I stumbled upon the large racks of bags of bulbs (from http://www.bulbs-to-blooms.com... ) at Costco. A few moments of frenzied gardening passion and I went home with:


1 bag 0f 100 crocus large flowering mix (photo shows purple, yellow, & white),
1 bag 0f 100 crocus 'spring beauty',


1 bag 0f 60 iris 'harmony',


1 bag 0f 100 anemone 'St. Brigid' mix (purple, lavender, pink, white, red),

1 bag 0f 100 anemone mix of 'The Admiral' & 'Lord Lieutenant',

1 bag 0f 100 anemone mix of 'The Governor' & 'Mount Everest',

1 bag 0f 100 anemone mix of 'Sylphide' & 'Mr. Fokker',


1 bag 0f 28 hyacinth 'Shades of Blue',

1 bag 0f 28 hyacinth "fierce mix" (white, pink, lavender, purple, light red),

1 bag 0f 28 hyacinth mix of 'Pink Pearl' & 'Blue Star',


1 bag 0f 50 tulip mix of 'Carnaval De Nice' & 'Midnight Magic', &


2 bags 0f 100 Muscari latifolium

As far as I'm concerned that is either a colossal lapse of reason or a cry for help...maybe BOTH. So much for my big bulb plan ning session for the fall!

Any words of wisdom/caution regarding any of these? Suggestions for companions if these varieties seem lonely?
Always looking for interesting plants for pollinators and food! Bonus points for highly, and pleasantly scented plants.
