We've put in today: Allium Violet Beauty Allium Multibulbosum Nigrum Narcissus Ice King
And coming next all the tulips A mix of Tulip Hermitage Tulip Margarita Tulip Purple Doll Tulip Amazing Grace Front planted with some Muscari Aucheri White Magic.
But that would be the weekend after as we run out of time 😉 always takes much longer than you think when you have nearly a thousand bulbs.
I've got plenty yet to plant 3 boxes plus all of the bulbs I've saved from last year. Can't remember all the tulips I've bought but I've got quite a few varieties.

I've planted Jan Reus, Orange Emperor and Purple Flag. I've also planted 15 'free' mixed lily tulips and have had 15 more delivered this morning, I'm hoping Ballerina, Pink Parrot, Black Parrot and some lovely white lily tulips will reappear in the garden.
I followed Monty Don's advice (GW last month) and used a crowbar to plant my tulips - it works well. Planted the following:- Muvota Gavota Purple Doll Infinity Honeymoon White Valley Sanne Cistula Antoinette Sunlover
