I've got most of my spring-flowering bulbs planted and some I put in a

dutch irises at something under 1.50 for 20).


I planted a large net worth of bulbs into 6 very large tubs on Friday.

Something (possibly a fox) dug into every single pot on Sunday night and
most of the bulbs ended up outside of the pot or on the surface of the
soil.


I wonder if you used Blood fish and bone or hoof and horn in your
compost mix.
Foxes and badgers sell food so dig looking for it.
