The other day I was
quite pleased with my spring bulb purchase that I had gotten at
Lowe's nursery center. I thought the 40 medium-sized Dutch master
daffodils were a great buy considering I paid under $10. for them. Then
this morning I went to Lowe's to shop for some pet-safe ice melt and
a new snow shovel and saw while I was there that the spring bulbs
were all on sale for 25 % off.
Needless to say, I
felt like I was in a chocolate
candy store and did not waste any time in selecting bags of spring bulbs; daffodils, crocus, paperwhites, tulips, and hyacinths to name a few.
While some people
may think it is too late to plant since much of the US is presently bitter cold with snow in the forecast. This weather will prevent many gardens from planting bulbs in the ground.
I will store these spring
bulbs
in a wood box in my root cellar that is covered with dry peat moss
until early spring and then plant them in container gardens for clients or
my personal garden.
Today was a great
day for shopping at Lowe's home improvement store and I am so glad
that I checked out the spring bulb section in the garden center.
