bulbs are in the ground


our bulbs are planted a warmish saturday afternoon helped us along. lots of enthusiasm was involved, hole digging, planting and already we are so excited about all the tulips, muscari hiacints, and half a dozen "sicilian honey leek.
i also got the two straw bales, which will be an other project i'm trying out. the two bales will be sitting in the garden all winter long, in spring when they are soaked and some decomposing has started i will add a bit of compost soil and plant on top of those bales... i read about it here and it just got me excited to try it out. i'm excited to become a straw bale gardener.
