Planting a bulb garden is a lot
like storing cans in your cupboard. If you put the big ones in
the front, you can't see the little ones in back.
So always plant large bults in the back and smaller ones toward
the front.
Canna
Lily
Canna is a bold plant, with large sword-shaped leaves and big,
bright flowers.
Crocus
The cup-shaped flowers bloom in early spring in shades of white,
yellow, pink, and purple.
Gladiolus
Fragrant white star-like flowers bloom for two months, starting
in late summer or early fall.
Iris
Bearded iris (also called German iris) provides a striking vertical
accent with its stiff sword-shaped leaves.
Daffodil
Daffodils are dependable perennial bulbs, blooming in early,
mid, or late spring, depending on the cultivar.
