Spring Bulb Planting: I just planted about 100 spring bulbs today. It took me 2 hours as I had to dig a 25 foot trench in the lawn (between 3-6 inches deep) to put the bulbs in, mix in some nice garden soil, put down bulb fertilizer and the bulbs, and cover them all up. I don’t know about you…but, I’m exhausted!

You can see photos of the bulbs I planted from Brecks.com. Here are direct links to the individual items:  Orange Snow Crocus, Dog’s Tooth Violet, Early Spring Carpet Color Collection, and Mahogany Iris Mixture. I also planted some Eye of the Tiger Dutch Irises, but they are no longer shown in the catalog due to being sold out.
