Hi,
Have you planted your Thompson and Morgan bulbs yet?

[Toorak]

Not yet - we had a foot of snow. It has just fully melted. Have you?

[Tilly2]

No, same here, Toorak. Mine are still in the box, in the garage. Any idea how long we have before they need to be planted, please?

[Toorak]

I have no idea - probably the sooner the better. The only problem is that I am now getting daily e-mails from T&M. Probably the price to pay for such a great deal.

After all danger of frost has gone I think- sorry to but in

[Tilly2]

It'll be the catalogue next! :-)

Thank you, Toorak. I might try to get some into some pots this week.

[Tilly2]

No problem, Margot. :-)

Thanks for that. June then?

[Toorak]

The catalogue arrived this morning :-)

[Toorak]

It's a dilemma because the RHS advises to plant as soon as possible. I might go for April (and keep my fingers crossed)

[Tilly2]

Aww! Mine's not here yet!

I suppose they can still be planted even if they've started shooting.

Not really a gardener Tilly - just read it on line. I would have thought they'd be OK in pots though, they could be covered or moved into a shed if necessary.

Thanks for that link, Toorak.

Margo, that's a good idea. Get them planted in pots and put them in the garage if it turns cold again. I'm going to need a few pots and a few bags of compost. :-)
