Hi to everyone. My questions concerns the planting of daffies, tulips, blue bells, etc. Firstly is it too early to start planting? When would it be ideal to plant? Secondly can you stagger planting to extend the display? For instance if I had 200 bulbs of the exact same type of tulip or daffodil, and I planted 25 a week…

Hi to everyone. My questions concerns the planting of daffies, tulips, blue bells, etc.

Firstly is it too early to start planting? When would it be ideal to plant?

Secondly can you stagger planting to extend the display? For instance if I had 200 bulbs of the exact same type of tulip or daffodil, and I planted 25 a week for the next 8 weeks, would I get 6 to 8 weeks of display or would they still come up at the same time...ish.

Thanks for the advice. Looks like its going to be a good weekend to get out into our gardens - yippee
