Betty, I have been thinking on it. Most of the tulips and daffs will be planted using the trench method. That is dig trench for a mass of bulbs, place bulbs, refill. Many are going to be going in 50, 100 or 200 at a time like that.
As far as energy goes you know I am always doing big projects in my garden. But my roses are good and my daylilies too. Nothing to move around in the summer like a crazy lady like I have in years past. That means I really can focus on adding the spring bulbs that I have ALWAYS wanted in amoung the daylily gardens.
I have lists and notes of what I intend to order and exactly were each will be placed. It takes me weeks to figgure this all out and I am still working on it. I have energy but the massive plan for bulbs this fall I am going to need help on. I intend to find (hire) a helper to dig the trenches for me. Then I can go and place the bulbs and he can refill and keep digging the next trench. That way I can get thousands of daffs and tulips planted in one day.
So that is my plan. Otherwise I would go crazy. I remember not this past fall but the year before when I planted around 1,700 bulbs it took me all day for at least a week. By the time I was getting near the end I was so tired that I made a mess of it, lost tags and just stuck the last of the bulbs in willy nilly to get it done.
