Spring Bulbs?!!

Back at the beginning of February I posted a question asking whether it was worth planting up some bulbs that I hadn't managed to plant last autumn.  As usual everybody was really helpful and encouraging and as suggested I planted the bulbs up and gave them a chance.  Well I am really pleased to report that I have had a fantastic display.  The only bulbs that weren't quite as good as the others were the dwarf iris, I had two flowers but the other dozen or so bulbs just put up leaves.  I am absolutely chuffed and so glad for all the advice I was given so thank you everyone that replied to my post I am so grateful.  I'd post a pic if I could work out how to do it!

    Those little irises are a bit shy flowering

    I expect it was also because the irises are normally flowering in Feb/March. Perhaps you'll get more of a result next year. image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
