Thanks, Margaret.
My first day of gardening here;
digging out stray (surviving) blue Chionodona, Scilla and Puschkinia bulbs.
Have to go to Mrs. L's garden tomorrow to do the same.
She specifically told me she did not like what amounts to random (spotty?) sprinklings of small seeding bulbs.
Once there's enough to provide blocks of colour they'd be invading her lawn which is the responsibility of the lawn maintenance people.
She's big on tulips, which add some lovely colour before I can put in the annuals and before the perennials really get going.
So nice to get gardening!
I'm sorry that you're having a stop-and-go spring.
What we've had here is not usually as marked as it is this year,
but the spring has been so late.
I was at Mrs L's garden two days ago and there was nothing later than crocuses.
Below at her garden, April 23 last year: you can see early tulips that are finished.
