Natalie thanks. I questioned my own sanity last fall when I had to plant those 4,999 bulbs. Of course now that things are blooming I have conveniently forgotten about how much work it is and am plotting this falls order of bulbs.

Thanks Susan. When I planned and planted my daylily beds I always planned to add bulbs around and between the daylilies. But it took me a long time to get to that plan as I rearranged those daylilies so many times until I got it more or less the way I wanted it. Then I put in lily bulbs and after that finially got to adding the spring bulbs. So I knew what I wanted but as anything in a garden, it takes time to achive the goal.

My daylily beds are full, I have a lot of daylilies but I haven't bought new ones in two years as I would have to get rid of something to replace it with something new. Don't feel like doing that so instead am really putting my efforts into the spring bulbs.
