Hilltop Garden 2010

This is a spring photo from last year. I have some more bulbs and more plants in front since then. The river of daffodil bulbs have also filled in nicely as you can see in the next two pictures from 2010.


For next year, I think I want to work in moving the white bulbs. They just seem to detract from all the color. I have another bed under the deck that is mostly an all white garden which they might find to be their new home. I also need to fill in a tulip circle with more bulbs. The deer ate the foliage in early 2009 and they did not recover in 2010. What other changes would you suggest?

More Species Tulips

As April is about to end so are the tulips. I can believe how fast spring is flying by this year. Here are a couple of varieties on species tulips that I added last fall. They are suppose to be more deer resistant, but come to find out the bunnies love them.

Multipling Daffodils

These daffodils have been in the ground for three years. Every year there are more and more blooms. It is starting to feel like they should be dug up and spaced more. A task I fear doing as I always manage to slice them in half with the shovel. Perhaps it does not even need to be done. How often do you split your multiplying bulbs?
