Still have unplanted Daffs?
I was getting more seed starting stuff and asked what they do with all the
left over bulbs now. He told me to help myself, that if I planted them *ASAP* I would get leaves this year and flowers next year. Of course one has to give each bulb a little squeeze to make sure there's some life left in there. He said he did it a few years back and that's how it worked for him. So I took home 2 bags of 50 and will be out in the mud this weekend; all this melting snow has turned our lawn into mush! Finally something to do as soon as the ground thaws--plant free daffs! It might be worth it to go to your garden store and ask "What do you guys do with all the left over daffs?"--the price tag on the bulbs I brought home--$40.00 each! -- Kristen Zone 6, SE NY |

I paid 6.99 for a bag of 50 about 4 years ago, and have about 500 now! .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
