^^^^ what she says!!! OMG!They will look fab!
A whole lotta planting going on, will be great to see them in the spring.
I planted a load of crocus under some apple trees one year. The next morning, nearly every one had been dug up and I assume eaten by badgers. It was a devil of a job mowing for a bit after that.

Could of been grey squirrels. My friend has stopped planting bulbs because they just dig them up. Which is very annoying, I was going to give her some bulbs for Christmas.
I’ve finished planting.

Squirrels dig up lots here too! Such a pain.
^^^ they've built a drey in our large copper beech, little b*****rs are just vermin. At least her nextdoor has stopped feeding them peanuts, she can no longer get out in the garden poor woman.
A little update on my spring bulbs.

Beautiful! Worth all the hard work. Smile
The voles, badgers and boar eat ours, and the heat does for the potted ones, especially when I forget to water Blush
What masses of colour Scarlet, really lifts the heart, are they part of your cut flower enterprise or just for your own enjoyment?
