ShadyGreenThumb said:I received a couple more garden surprises for Christmas. My mom gave me a suet bird feeder in the shape of a giant 14" frog! LOL I have never seen a frog feed a bird let alone a frog hanging in a tree. This will definitely add some whimsey to the garden! A dinner guest brought me some tulip bulbs rooting in a glass vase. I have it sitting in a sunny window hoping it blooms for me. Any hints for this first time tulip grower? There must be 20 or so bulbs in there! btw, DH loved his garden scooter. He used the box for indoor target practice with my new BB gun! ETA: My neighbor brought over a beautiful giant red cyclamen! I used it as a centerpiece on my dinner table

You should ask the people at the bulb forum! That's where I got inspired (by them) to plant (1946 - the total of just the tulips came to 1402!) this Fall (for the first time)! @Newyorkrita should be able to help you. She planted at least 12,000 bulbs this Fall.
