Spring Bulbs

hostasformez4
14 years ago

Went to Menards yesterday for paint and got a wonderful buy on spring bulbs. 75% off and I went into a 'feeding frenzy' picking out different kinds.

Well, yesterday we got a 100 bulbs in the ground but I have hundreds to plant!!!! ( my aching back)

I can already see them waving in the spring breeze, their wonderful colors adding to Spring's richness.

We have a drill attachment which makes holes in the dirt. Hubby drilled and I planted and covered. Today I'm on my own so progress will be slower.

Wish me luck and pray the weather stays dry as the ground is still tacky from all the October rain.
