Fall Planting for Colorful Spring

I at last finished planting all of the new bulbs I ordered while the ground was still workable.  Tulips in particular don't survive many seasons where daffodils seem to multiply and come up every year so it was time to plant more tulips and be surprised at what comes up from previous plantings.  A  total of 150 tulip bulbs and 25 daffodil bulbs have been re-located in our yard from Holland.  Below is a collage showing the varieties. 
We have bright yellow daffodils and if I remember correctly huge red, orange, purple and pink tulips from previous years.  We'll see what mother nature displays come spring.

Lots of work getting them in the ground, Carolyn, however, in the spring they will be spectacular. I know you will share the beauty with us! Hope your back is not too sore! Hugs, Donna
