Garden Reprieve
I found more space for tulips in our backyard, so I planted fifteen more bulbs the other day. If they all come up, I don't think that we'll be filling in with many annuals next spring! I am trying out these varieties:
Two of them are"bouquet" tulips - apparently each stem has multiple blooms. I haven't seen any in real life, but they looked neat in the photo at the garden centre.
Shrubs were also being cleared out at 50% off the regular price, so I picked up a drawf burning bush for $15. If it doesn't survive the next year, I can get a credit for the $15 from the garden centre, so that's not bad. I've never planted a shrub before, so it's kind of scary and exciting!
Good luck!
