Today is the last day of autumn. Winter arrives tomorrow (somehow?!) bringing some heavy rain for a few days. Harper and I ducked into the nursery this morning, grabbed some very late fistfuls of bulbs and with some digging, and measuring and fertilising we have them in. Phew.
Hopefully we see some daffodils, bluebells and tulips popping their heads up in a few weeks. It’s late, but we might just get there.
How late am I with my bulbs? Too late?
I am not sure but I think you may be surprised,well I hope you are,out of the garden they smell so nice and look good too,have a lovely weekend Beth.
I’ve never had tulips before…I will be STOKED if they work!
It’s nearly time to prune the roses! And boy do mine need it! I think there’s a blog post there for you….how to prune roses. C’mon Bev!
I’m doing a little bulb planting and bulb transferring on Sunday…hopefully not too late.
I don’t do my roses until July…nice idea for a video though!
I think it’s late, but I want to hear that it isn’t because mine aren’t in yet!
The lady at the nursery said to do it in the next few days…we’ll be right!
I don’t know if it’s too late for bulbs BUT HOW IS IT WINTER TOMORROW?!
I have NO idea. It’s entirely inappropriate.
my plan was to plant tomorrow too!! Fingers crossed! XX
We’ll be right!
Fingers crossed!
My hubby grew up in a small beef farm in the highlands of Victoria and his parents planted hundreds of bulbs every year, all different colours. The photos are quite something, I only wish I witnessed them myself.
I just propagated 20 hydrangeas and I think i have cut them too short, arhhhh. This gardening thing is hard work,hey ?!

I planted a dozen daffys on Thursday, our poor vegie patch looks so barren in the winter. Hutch thinks I’m silly because we’re moving out of this house in a couple of months, but I thought the new tenants might enjoy a splash of colour. Hope they’re ok, they had started sprouting a little bit, fingers crossed!
