Flower Focus: Spring Bulbs (Allium, Narcissus & Tulipa)

One of the last big fall tasks on a flower farm is getting the bulbs in the ground so we can share them as soon as the winter wanes and warmer temperatures return. Amidst all the covid-19 anxiety, it’s a small comfort to watch the winter give way to spring. The allium (Allium acuminatum), daffodils (Narcissus), and tulips (Tulipa) are all on their way up through the earth. Perhaps even a little earlier than usual, given our mild winter.
