Spring Garden Color Revival
Now is the
time to get a jump start on having that early Spring burst of color in your
garden.
Initially,
with the first bout of warm weather after a long, cold winter, many of us are
itching to get outside and “scratch that itch” by buying and planting annuals
for color. Unfortunately, that warm
weather can easily be followed by a killing frost or two or three—Mother Nature
can be so cruel! It’s best to hold off
on those annuals and get your color fix with Spring bulbs that you plant in the
Fall of the previous year.
Tulips,
daffodils, crocus and hyacinths are just some of the bulb choices you
have. Plant them in clusters for maximum
effect, add some Bulb-tone fertilizer, and you will be rewarded in Spring with
a riot of color.
