Right , I know nothing about gardening , and nor to be honest , do I want to
. ( well , not too much anyway !!! )

I have a medium sized garden that is just grass in the middle , and a 2
foot wide border of soil all around the outside .

All I want to do is chuck in some bulbs at about a foot apart all the way
around the outside so I have flowers and a nice bit of colour there coming
around June time and will last all summer .

Buy tubs. Go to your local garden centre and buy whatever they tell you are
summer flowering bulbs. Buy the compost to put them in, take it all home,
fill the tubs with compost and plant the bulbs. Do the same next autumn for
the spring flowering, etc. etc. etc.
