Flower bulbs for spring

I used to help my parents chose and plant flower bulbs in autumn: tulips mostly. I also remember the delights of running in the woods when trees are still bare and the soil muddy but covered with daffodils.

Therefore during autumn I planted spring flowers for next year: fragrant hyacinthus,joyful narcissus and daffodils and scenic alliums!


- 2 'Allium tuberosum' (white flowers) in between Rosa D.Ispahan and old roses (19/09/2014)

- I 'iris reticulata' & snø iris (onions) on the border the fig/rose bed
- 5 'Allium gladiator' and 2 white allium were evenly spaced in the fig/rose bed
- I planted 8 botanical tulips at the bottom of my south hedge (20/09/2014)

23/09/2014
- Planted 15 'Allium molly' and 5 narcissus 'dutch master' near the 'Rose de Recht' and between boysenberry and American blueberry bushes
- 5 narcissus x incomparabilis 'ice follies' around the lingonberry bushes
- 3 'Allium christophii' (purple) around the mulberry tree


20/10/2014
- planted 3 Hyacinthus 'blue jacket' and 3 Hyacinthus 'carnegie' (white) around the rosa centifolia and mulberry tree
- planted 4 narcissus poeticus 'reccurvus' and 5 narcissus x medioluteus 'cheerfulness' between the white currant and the front lilac
- planted 8 blue allium caeruleum around wild blackberry and boysenberry (western hedge)
- planted 5 orchid narcissus 'Thalia' (white) around a wild flower (dandelion?) near the strawberry barrel
- planted 3 Nectaroscordum siculum between mulberry and wild blackberry
