I've really been enjoying the sun and seeing my front flower beds getting greener and greener as more leaves burst through the ground and the beginnings of buds appear. I am so excited to see what blooms! For the last couple of years, I've bought used bulbs from the Botanical Conservatory. Most of what I got was tulips as I already have lots of daffodils. The squirrels have done a bit of damage to the bulbs, but thankfully, I think most of what I got has continued to survive. Two years ago, I planted everything I got in the front of the house, and I got to see most everything bloom last year. Then last year I bought tulips to go around our deck, so this year will be the first time I see those bloom. I can't wait! I'm hoping that whenever we finally rip out the deck (which is still falling off of our house) that the demolition and construction (which will likely be a stamped concrete patio) won't damage my flowers. I think whatever I buy from the used bulb sale this year will likely get planted in the front again, just to be safe. 😅
Glorfindel is such a sweet ham. I'm hoping the time change doesn't make it more difficult to see him when he is awake. Although he doesn't seem to mind at all if I end up waking him up when I put food in his tank before I go to bed. 😊
