My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they're flowers;
if they don't they're weeds.

If both of you want some extra gardening to do you are always welcome here... always plenty of weeds to pull out 
Looks like a fun day
Your bulbs look good too Richard

great thread thee youre a hard one though, poor val only wanted a cuppa and a chat and youve got her out there doing your gardening! 
nice looking soil in that barrow too.
medbury, woah, at first I thought youd photoshopped those bulbs in as a joke! took me a minute to realise they were real, great growing there |

Ota those bulbs have been in for two seasons now,i`ll let them flower once more then i`ll have to dig them up.
Should look great this spring with even larger clumps |

Thanks Ota, I use potting mix in all the barrows and Val actually offered to give me a hand as that was my original plans for yesterday, tis okies she did not go home empty handed 
Your bulbs are going to look stunning Richard, I cant wait to see them, boy what huge job digging them up, I have a few small clumps that need digging up as well

Yes please , tried to plant a few iris in the main gardens out the back , every time I dug down found another bulb spot in the bare patches   You tend to forget where they are after they die back

I know, i got some daffs that were here when we moved here and every spring i say to Jackie we must dig those up and plant them within the main block,but oh no, end up forgetting where they are.....again
I'll do them at the end of this spring though |
