I have crocuses blooming! Some of them from bulbs that I planted my very own self. :) And the squill bulbs that I bought and planted on impulse last fall are starting to bloom and look like they're going to be lovely. The hyacinths are also starting to come up. I think I may have been a little too enthusiastic when I planted the those bulbs last fall. I think I'll have to do some transplanting later because I suspect that they're a little too close together. But I guess the nature of gardening is that it is on ongoing project.

I'm glad now that I bought a place that had an existing garden. I don't think I would have created one on my own and I would be missing out on this fun. My heart lifts a little bit every time I see new growth.

I forgot to plant my hyacinths last fall. I had them in the frig all winter so now I'm going to plant them. they are starting to grow already. amazing how plants know the seasons even if they are in the wrong place.
I have to plant them so they can bloom this year. I did the thing last year with my tulips and daffodils. they came up last year really small but the daffs are really tall and starting to bloom. I think the tulips are in a bad spot and I've stepped on them a few too many times. they are trying to come up at least. lol

Tulips are pretty resilient, I think. I bet a few will come through for you.

They appear to be trying. I'll have to let you know if they make it. I planted them too close to a bird feeder and I kept stepping on them before I realized they were peeking through.

*hugs*

It is so much fun. I keep thinking that there are probably neighbors who are laughing at me a little bit because every single time I walk in or out of the house I have to stop and inspect the garden to see if there's anything new. Even if it's only been an hour or two since I walked by. I'm suck a dork. *g*
