I stopped reading when I got to this sentence.
You can search to see who grows/sells flowers locally to you. There are only 3 near me but I won't be setting up as a 4th.
Start with tulips in the spring, harvesting the whole bulb and throwing it away after the flower has been brought indoors.
This wasteful attitude really winds me up . What’s wrong with replanting the bulb or just cutting the tulip and leaving the bulb in place.
Maybe it’s me! Maybe I care to much about the plant or the insects & animals that benefit from them. This year , as with my trial run last year. I’ll never strip a plant of all its open blooms in one hit. Definitely not going to be ripping up bulbs just to make some pocket money!
Builder that would like to go play in the garden.
