After a winter wondering if the pain in my hip I endured for months after a long day of bulb planting was worth it, I have to say yes! The daffodils add such a happy vibe to an otherwise drab spring background.
I will definitely be adding more color for spring come this fall.
So should there be purple, pink, white? So much would look good.
Although the hubby suggested I find someone to help with spring clean up. I wanted to do my beds myself, as some of what I have planted could be mistaken for weeds, and I’ve had to be very careful to avoid that myself!
But I will definitely be enlisting help on the following spring projects.
