Marilyn, I know that it does take me longer to get my gardenwork and planting work done than it did years ago so I have slowed down. But heck, so what? It still gets done and I really love my garden. I love to look at the plants, I love to sit outside and I love to putter in the garden. And I am out of room so the really hard work of creating new gardens each spring is done. I always had to do that, create new ones plus mantain the ones already here. Now it is just take care of those gardens already here. And since I mulched very heavily in the fall, there are not many weeds this spring.
I have already ordered 2,550 bulbs coming this fall. I have lists here of what I intend to order still from Scheepers and their wholesale division, Van Engelen as soon as they update their website and open for orders later this month. So my bulb orders should more than double after that. Honestly, I don't know how I am going to get them all planted but I have just decided that there is going to be a spring bulb paradise next spring so that is the way it is gonna be!
