Thanks, all! Marie, I was hoping you'd see this; I know you are the Bulb Queen. Now I need to figure out what to plant in the back, in the middle and in the front. AND, which ones come up and bloom first and last. Any more advice you can offer in this area? I know some glads and iris grow quite tall, so maybe they should be closest to the fence? I've tried canna in this bed and they didn't do well. I'll put these somewhere else.

Once I get the bulbs in, I want to plant seeds for greens and lettuces - and maybe some carrots and beets, too. Any reason I *shouldn't* do this in the same bed? I'm thinking the bulbs won't come up till spring, yes or no? Anyway, I want to have my cake and eat it too - literally.
