The planting of Spring bulbs

Today was the perfect day for planting Spring bulbs as London enjoyed blue skies and reasonably warm sunshine.Yesterday was wet and dreary so it was good to see the sun.

The three pictures below are showing the planting of Daffodil, Red Lady Tulip and Narcissus bulbs in the front garden.

  2. These are the bulb of which flowers? With bulbs, you really need to have patience :-) -- those that are supposed to flower in march, april, may, they will not do anything until time comes. That's why I usually don't plant bulbs, really requires patience and then I forget where I planted what. While digging the garden to put some other plants, I find the bulbs!!
