Just amazing that you can seed things like amaryllis which is totally outside my zone...pots only, sometimes summers out in the garden. Those glads look great. I have never had any luck with glads....the chickens LOVE the bulbs. They scratched out everything I ever planted. Also, anything that did grow always was so flopppy and I'm terrible about staking. HOWEVER, I saw a great idea on a BBC show: Plant the bulbs really thickly in a plastic BASKET, then set the whole shebang into the garden once the bulbs are up and growing. This would really work for me. I'm going to try it next spring. (Cause I would have to lift and store the bulbs for winter here...so the basket thing makes it easy to find/lift them)
