What kind of sticks do you use? How tall are they?
Dollar store have "popsicle sticks", I also use bamboo sticks that I picked up at the discount store and cut them to size.. While you are at the dollar store pick up some magic markers. If you see a spot you want a certain color you can mark the sticks that color so when you are planting your bulbs you know what color you want to go in the hole.
I bet you think I am crazy. I am a planner.
