Today I was planting around 800 bulbs seeds. Tomorrow will plant more
and all my spring bulbs as well.


So what sort of bulb seeds and what sort of bulbs? I've been looking at
bulbs and don't think I can resist more daffs and jonquils in as bright
as yellow as possible. Might even try a few pink daffs.


The bulb and corm seed I have planted are Babiana, Onixotis & Galtonia, I
have some others to do as well. Bulbs and corms I have planted include
Babiana pulchra, Babiana villosa, Babiana stricta (white form), Sparaxis
grandiflora, Sparaxis elegans, Tritonia deusta, Ornithagalum arabica,
Ornithagalum thyroides and some Moraea's tomorrow. So far 2 days planting
and hopefully over tomorrow.


That sounds like a nice mix. Are the Galtonias the really big ones? Or
have I got it muddled up as I thought there were at least 2 varieties of
these?????
