You have to plant tulips deeply if you're putting them in the ground, and they really need to bake in summer to get enough energy in to the bulb.

Usually to plant fresh every year, and easiest in containers.

Squirrels and rats will eat them so I chickenwire the pots!

Oh no! Maybe they got waterlogged?

These are the others

It will be interesting to see how all that crushed concrete fares, mixed with only a small amount of sticky yellow clay...I know all too well about that!! #gardenersworld

Those magnolias were heaven...especially the really dark one at the end. #gardenersworld
