Thanks, Tiffany.

I would plant if the soil was only damp, but it has been saturated for at least two months.

As for planting them in containers, I do have the containers, but don't have enough potting soil on hand and our garden centers are closed for the season.

Part of me really wants to plant them, but I am so pleased to see the rain after three years of extreme drought, I can handle losing some new bulbs. I may even lose some of the bulbs that are already planted in the garden to rot ... Hilarious! It's worth it. We really needed the rain.

Last year, at this time, everything was covered with a foot of snow and I was out watering plants wearing winter clothing because the snow didn't melt and the soil was too dry for the other plants which would have made them more susceptible to the winter cold temps.

It's always something.

Smiles,
Lyn
I'd rather weed than dust ... the weeds stay gone longer.
