I think they came up late February, but that's a good question and I'll have to go look in my archives. I'll let you know! It was after the existing bulbs were almost done blooming, and it amazed me, frankly. <BR/><BR/>Meems - I'm waiting for that Arctic blast, too. So glad I am not in the Midwest, where I am sure they will be hit hard.

I think there is an arctic blast that will be affecting most of us this week. Even here we will be in the 30's by the end of the week. No freezing please.<BR/>I like your wren and yes, the cardinal is the cycle of life but we don't like to think about how that works sometimes do we?<BR/>MeemsMeemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327638960016684551.post-67882559377000308172009-01-11T17:00:00.000-06:002009-01-11T17:00:00.000-06:00Seeing new bulb sprouts in the garden is amazingly...Seeing new bulb sprouts in the garden is amazingly uplifting.

We are truly lucky. But we get weak and shiver at the slightest breeze!

I think a lot of my bulbs literally rotted in the ground.

I ended up not planting any this year, but I have other new bulbs and daylilies that I'm excited to see what happens with.
