Autumn is the best time of the year for planting many of our favourite spring flowering bulbs. And seeing as we’re right in the middle of autumn it seemed like a good time to spring a new series on my loyal readers – a series on none other than “Spring Flowering Bulbs.”

Most of them are already favourites of many gardeners such as daffodils, ranunculi, tulips and gladioli but hopefully there will be a couple of others that you won’t have seen that often. Who knows…we may even crack the big one and reveal a brand new bulb that’s only just been released (and then it may be devoured by the compost beetle)? Stranger things have happened.
I’m not going to put a set number of days on this series (because I always struggle to keep up with them) so I’ll keep going with it until I run out of things to say or I find something else more exciting to talk about – whichever happens first.

Enjoy!
