They put a smile on my face! That’s the main thing I can say about spring bulbs–i.e. the ones that you plant in the fall and they emerge in the spring–even late winter.
Tulipa tarda–one of the many “botanical” tulips
Muscari–grape hyacinth. One of the most generous garden plants, will flower in sun or shade, dry or wet soil, and will naturalize easily–maybe too easily.
Galanthus nivalis–Snowdrop
Crocus and bee–what’s not to LOVE here?
This might be my favourite spring bulb–Fritilaria mealagris–aka Snake’s Head Fritillary.
