Ready for those Spring Flowers?

So are we!

And the first step is to get your bulbs and get them planted NOW. You see, those beautiful Tulips and Daffodils you admire each Spring are sold in bulb form and they need to planted in the prior fall for blooms in the next spring. So all the work is done now on a nice fall day and then you get the rewards of gorgeous colors in April and May...and you didn't even have to work in the cold weather to do it.

Tulips and Daffodils come in many different shades and colors and the Tulips even have various flower shapes!

But Tulips and Daffodils aren't the only flowers. You have Hyacinths, Crocus, Squills, Alliums, and Fritillarias are other great choices.

Planting a bulb is simple. Plant the bulb to the proper depth, usually 3-8" depending on the flower type (read the package), add Bulb-Tone and cover with soil and a little mulch.
