Need Green Thumb Vibes!

The weather has been spring-like enough for the past month for me to know that I'm not a complete failure at bulb-planting - the tulips and the ornamental onions that I put into the ground in the fall have come up (I’m not are certain about the hyacinths and the anemones because I forgot exactly where I planted them). This early success was encouraging enough to prompt me to pick up a package of two pinkish-orange mini-calla bulbs at the garden centre last month. The mini-callas caught the attention of both Chris and I when the garden centres started opening up in February. I did a little research in the copy of The Calgary Gardener that Chris gave me last Christmas, and was pleased to find out that it's possible to grow callas in Alberta as long as they're not left outside for the winter. Happy, I bought a small package of bulbs and a big pot to keep them in. According to my book, I'm supposed to start the bulbs indoors at the end of April (so that's on my weekend to-do list), and I can take them outside after the threat of frost is gone. In the fall, I'll bring them inside to the mudroom and keep my fingers crossed that they come back in the spring.
