Mucky work...

planting tulips.

Nice company though.

Three large pots, 40 bulbs in each. Nearest one a pink mix, middle a purple mix, third one a red mix - but I threw a few brilliant orange and yellow 'Olympic Flame' into each pot for a flamboyant touch! Will probably top off the pots with some pink forget me not plants that are going spare. I've not bought mixes before but the pictures were very beguiling....

Just need to wait now. (And I can cut the orange ones for the house if I don't like the effect!)

Wow, that is going to be some blaze of colour come the spring!

Loved your last post, and I feel pretty much the same way, although I always welcome yarn and books, she adds hastily, in case her husband sees this! We try to match what we spend to what we donate.

That's a very nice principle to work by!

You did it! And I .... didn't. Ah well. Dry again on Wednesday, I think.

I love those tulips combinations. I will look forward to seeing photos of them in the spring.
