Granny's gone and done it again

I have tulips coming up. My favorite spring flower. Austin helped me plant new bulbs last fall.

My tulips tend to fade away. Am i just not feeding them, or is that usual?

What do you mean... don't last long once opened? Tulips last a bit longer than Daffodils.

Cynthia,

You just don't want to admit that you like those gross things.

Are they on sun or shade?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

we only boiled them once then fried. I just didnt like them.

True..I'm excited for this year. Now if the cats will just stay out of there! They usually go potty down at the other end of the bed. Ugh...

The plants get smaller every year and then quit blooming.

Ahh..time to thin them out, or dig them up and plant new ones..like I just did last fall. I had those others in for probably 4 or 5 years.
