I miscalculated slightly in my planting, and I now have enough tulips and daffodils to open a flower shop… The *plan* was to plant the cutting beds so I’d have enough blooms to do the flower arrangements for our May 20 anniversary party, without leaving the rest of the garden bare, but Mother Nature has wrought havoc with said plans, with the whole garden running 3-4 weeks early this year. I don’t know whether it’s climate change, or what, but I’m going to have to rely on whatever comes next, I think — alliums and irises? And if harvesting them leaves the garden a bit denuded, oh well.
