Also the cayenne pepper is a good idea. :) Thanks!Valerie the Pumpkin Patch Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09350509427673390188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13309574.post-22771321231976282432009-05-30T09:00:45.018-05:002009-05-30T09:00:45.018-05:00Zoey, I planted them in the pots and surrounded th...Zoey, I planted them in the pots and surrounded the pots with finished compost. Then I covered them with a layer of cayenne pepper and leaves to deter the squirrels. This actually worked out quite nice. I will be doing this again this fall.Sylvanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13186604429680496847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13309574.post-42855564034402257652009-05-30T06:45:32.526-05:002009-05-30T06:45:32.526-05:00What a great idea, Sylvana.

Did you just leave the pots out all winter or sink them in the ground?<br /><br />Those World Expression tulips are beautiful.Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13309574.post-22980868240883355502009-05-24T23:38:21.582-05:002009-05-24T23:38:21.582-05:00Northern Shade, I did.

I only did one bag of mixed tulips, all the other tulips I bought last fall I planted straight into the garden; but I might try this technique on a grander scale this fall. Especially with mixed tulip bags.Sylvanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13186604429680496847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13309574.post-5576308837941458202009-05-24T09:48:05.716-05:002009-05-24T09:48:05.716-05:00Did you plant the mixed tulips in pots, wait for t...Did you plant the mixed tulips in pots, wait for them to bloom, and then plant them as colour groups? That's a good idea. I like the World Expressions tulips, and they go well with your red and white themed bulbs. Aladdin really has flair. It reminds me of the stylized pictures of tulips you see in antique tapestries and paintings.Northern Shadehttp://northernshade.ca/noreply@blogger.com
