    Yuliya, thank you for the video and some great tips!
    Great idea to feel the big outdoor pots with weeds on the bottom. Saves soil and creates compost inside!
    Squirrels love tulip bulbs! I put chicken wire in the ground to protect the bulbs, and the tulips grow through it.
    Did you say you removed the invasive spirea shrubs? I have several I wish to remove. What native shrubs are you considering to replace spireas?
    Do you spray against deer during winter and early spring? They love crocuses and pansies....
    Enjoy your winter rest and thanks again for wonderful videos! (O, may be do some Q&A videos in winter months?)

    • @ydoyougarden
      @ydoyougarden  3 роки тому +1

      Q&A is a great idea! I removed spireas because they started so seed aggressively. I love itea Virginica as a replacement. this part of the garden is fenced, but in the front I spray and spray and spray starting march

    Headed out to plant daffodils and summer snowflakes in the field that we’re slowly helping to become a meadow. It’s rocky and hard to work in but I’m determined (and my husband will be helping today…I was defeated yesterday). A few more small packages of bulbs coming this week and then I’m done 🙅‍♀️

    I'm in Zone 5 Illinois. I spent December 2nd and 3rd planting 450 bulbs 😂 I thought I was nuts. But yes, my bulb shippiment was late too. I heard from another gardener better later than never. Bulbs has more chances of surviving in the ground that out so I risked. First time ever planting 820 bulbs total and diving and planting over 200 iris. My body is exhausted my dopamine level is high 🤗

    I m still planting too ...it has been too rainy the last days.
    Last year I ve planted sales tulips in january ...and they flowered the same time as the bulbs planted earlier...
    So ..dont stress ...
    Good luck with your tulip collection.
    Kind regards,

I debated on cutting them back, did it now wished I hadn't, never had these tall ones before, thinking it's probably not good to let water go down the stem now. I'm in zone 7, but I feel like we could be zone 8 now, 2pm and it's 55* right now.
