Volume 19 Issue 3, March 2022
Lots of flowers! Okay, not ones that I have made, but one that has the seal of approval from Mother Nature. I was surprised—and delighted—when one of my local box stores had tiny planters with daffodils, tulips, hyacinths and iris bulbs beginning to grow.
As a transplanted Midwesterner with a love of all things West, I have missed the bulbs that normally bloom in the spring. While we have beautiful tropical flowers in Florida, I still long for the pretty bulbs of spring that tickle the memories of my childhood.
I planted all of the above, and much to surprise, they actually grew and bloomed. I planted a dozen daffodils under my Southern Magnolia, which was a bit strange, but beautiful when they were blooming.
The blooms won’t last, but I will try to bag them and replant them next year. From previous experience, this doesn’t work, but I am the eternal optimist. Enjoy my pretty daffodils.

Julie
