The Bulb Boxes

I love tulips. So much so that it has become harder to find places for the new tulips that I buy every year - especially since they are sold in the fall when you can not see what is already planted. I got sick of accidentally digging up established bulbs, so I started planting the bulbs in plastic planters. That has worked out really well, but I wanted to see if cardboard boxes would work too. Verdict?

They do!

So sad...I always plant tulips in the fall (and wait to get them at 50% off). Forgot last year (and had hoped to re-landscape the front anyway). It's looking so drab - very little color to enjoy this Spring! So I planted a pot of pansies and forgave myself for lack of planning. Next year it's going to be species tulips which should naturalize!
