| Spring
Bulb Reminder! |
Spring flowering bulbs (hardy bulbs)
such as Snowdrops, Crocus,
Daffodils,Tulips,
Amaryllis,
and Hyacinths
need a cold period during the winter
to jump start their growth cycle
so that they will flower in the
spring. They can be planted untilthe
first frost. In general spring flowering
bulbs will grow best in climate
zones 4-8. Spring flowering bulbs
normally start blooming in February
with snowdrops and end in June with
the Alliums.
Also, if you looking for a long
ribon of color from the first signs
of spring all the way through fall

Guide to Growing Annuals!
