been busy planting!

CG hasn't had time for taking too many photos lately. He has been busy planting over 300 daffodils. Most are planted in masses of 7 to 29 (think plants enjoy odd numbers). CG believes that one variety he planted will be blooming by the end of February. The forsythia bed was started with daffodil plantings in April '09 (walmart specials -some were 50 cents for a pot of 5!). Now, the bed is probably 90% full (over 200 bulbs). It's not that large of an area, maybe 20' X 12'. Between the yellow forsythia and the 6 different types yellow/yellow daffodils, CG is pleased with the development of the planting area.

Daffodil planting will conclude in the next few weeks. CG plans to purchase about 3 dozen Mount Hood variety (white/white) daffodils to finish-off the cut flower bed. This will amount to about $18...if CG wins the lottery, however, he may consider 3 dozen of these: (would cost over $1000 for 3 dozen bulbs)
