Today it was raining. Cats and dogs. Fogs. Cold and colds. Headache.
But – add to grey a little bit of pink and rose and one will immediately feel relaxed. As Sticki said, pink is the fashion colour of this season.
I have got pink glasses. I have got a box – a laaaaarge box with…
37 bulbs of Anemone Coronaria Sylphide…
…20 bulbs of Allium Sphaerocephalum (have a look what a nice flower that can be)…
…4 bulb of Narcissus largecupped Salome…
….40 bulbs of Oxalis Deppei Iron Cross (not a Red Cross?)…
…and…5 and 5 Tulipa Triump Ligh Pink and Purple variety
My God, I am so happy, as I have full box of them!!!
Holland quality for 8 euros!!!
Now, the time is up. Next week going to have a break and will plant them in the garden. They are all new to me. I will welcome any of your suggestions how to arrange them in a nice border. Any idea?

Steragram@isn´t it a miracle? Just googling I found that the only the first one - Anemone coronaria sylphide - costs 7 pounds in the UK. So this is a miraculous box (but have to keep a bit of my scepticism, too).

Wow .... That's a lovely selection, Katarina. My favourite is the simply divine Salome daffodil. I must go online today & see if I can find it available in NZ.

I didn´t wait till next week. I planted them today in the afternoon. Only daffodils stayed unplanted, as I decided to plant them in mother´s garden.

Surreylad and Melichisedec@thank you very much. Hope, I didn´t planted them too deeply.

Lovely. I find bulbs irresistible and add to them every year.
