Random tulips are blooming but not those that I planted last fall.

Bleeding hearts are blooming.

Little purple and whites are blooming.

A gardening team came over today to clean my garden. Oh, what joy!

Ideas:
More bluebells on the side. 1/2 near sidewalk between first two trees now. They are gone earlier this week.

More crocus -- really big ones.

Ice Follies look great but the garden needs more spring bulbs. Two more rounds of daffs -- very early and later? oranges, deep yellows. something Jazzy for the late daffs. And all around the front until the back yard gate.

Hyicynths with the daffs. Many are out now and look great with the daffs.

April garden

Ice Follies are up and out, looking very much alone right now. The hundred bulbs I planted last fall look sparse spread around the front garden beds. I could use something purple -- hyacinths? wild ones? -- and some oranges -- more narcissus.

We are going to have the garden professionally cleaned and readied for the season. A gift from Indy friends. A great gift because I don't think I could do it myself in a timely manner. Maybe for July.
