The Layered Bulb Pot pickup was at 10 am on Saturday, February 2. If you missed it, there is not a problem at all. Here are directions on how to find it. If you were standing in the Nursery parking lot, look across the road towards the white farmhouse. Go up the driveway to the left of the farmhouse to the first greenhouse you come to. (It has a "2" on the door). Go in there and you bulb pot is on the benches on the left. Please be sure to close the door tightly when you leave. For Layered Bulb Pot, here are the key things to remember: Cool and Bright. Bulbs like full sun and 50 degrees. So as close to that as you can get in a modern house is great! 60 degrees is better than 70. As bright a spot as you have will work. Watering. Everybody’s home conditions are different, but a rule of thumb would be once a week once they have some good leaves showing. Right now they need less, because they are not using much. A better way is to see how moist or heavy they are by lifting or poking your finger in. You can plant them outdoors after you have enjoyed them indoors and the flowers have gone by. Generally we want to wait until at least mid April, since these bulbs have been used to indoor temperatures. You can download the bulb forcing information sheet here if you would like more information. |
