I now feel spring is finally here, I see small green shoots on a couple of trees and in the last few weeks daffodils, tulips and crocuses have started to flower. Spring happens a lot later here than in the UK where you can expect daffodils and the such to flower in January/February.
This year we are hoping for a splash of color in the garden and starting in November we planted 150 daffodil bulbs and more recently we planted:
- 120 Irises
- 9 Rudbeckias
- 9 Lilies
- 36 Gladioluses
- 3 Dicentrases
- 4 Dahlias
- 3 Peonys
The daffodils are doing pretty well and they will start to flower this week. Next year we’ll plant more spring flowers such as crocuses, primroses, tulips, Lily of the valley and snow drops.
