Who says our #March2Spring campaign has to only include bulbs seeds and perennials? This #Magnolia stellata 'Centennial' greets you as soon as you enter our parking lot! Even on this dark and gray day it's a huge bright spot to our eyes and hearts! #bulbchat

This Corydalis 'Beth Evans' is short but packs a powerful color punch in the Mid-Late Spring garden! This is one to look forward to on your #March2Spring ! #bulbchat

Our #March2Spring continues with #Spring Crocus "Ruby Giant". Although not "ruby-colored" at all this bright purple Crocus with a lighter almost blue heart has been growing vigorously in our garden for multiple years! It's a show stealer! #bulbchat

So some of you have already begun your #March2Spring so these may have already come and gone in your garden. But early Spring means Crocus! And this "Ruby Giant" shown with an Eranthis is the perfect little "pick-me-up" after a long winter! The patches of blue add color right when you need it most! #bulbchat

No Spring garden (in zones 4 - 8) should be without Leucojum! It's the "baby's breath" of the bulb world! Mid-Spring white bells go with anything (here with Tulip "Renown") don't mind wet or dry soil shade or sun and they're pest-proof! Why WOULDN'T you have it?! #March2Spring #bulbchat

As we continue our month-long #March2Spring let us take in the beauty and strength of Muscari (Grape Hyacinth) "Baby's Breath". Even though it has larger thicker bloom heads on strong thick stems the fragrance is sweet pleasant and light. Great along the border of a garden! #bulbchat

One way to create a simple garden combo as you #March2Spring is to plant different colors of the same Genus or plant type like these two - Anemone blanda "Blue Shades" and "White Splendour" (yes spelled that way). You know white goes with anything so adding this beautiful strong blue makes a wonderful combination of color and texture. #bulbchat

Want a huge show-stopper both for the garden and the show bench? A fast favorite is Daffodil "Fellows Favorite" named for Fellows Riverside Gardens shown here with Corydalis "Beth Evans". Strong tall stems big front facing and symmetrical blooms are a must have! Great cut flowers too! #March2Spring #bulbchat

Want to create color combinations but don't want to take the time to figure the colors and bloom time on your own? Try "Gudoshnik Double"! This is ONE Tulip variety but it's so variable in color it looks like 2 or 3 complimentary varieties. Easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy! #March2Spring #bulbchat

Did you know we took the word "Bulbs" off of our name? Why you ask? Because we're so much more than just bulbs! Like this Asclepias (Butterfly Milkweed) syriaca for example. Our "pollinators" like bees and butterflies are VITAL to the balance of life here on Earth! Find ways to harbor and support them whenever possible. This plant gives adult Monarch butterflies nectar and Monarch caterpillars a larval food source. #March2Spring

Next up during our #March2Spring is Muscari (Grape Hyacinth) latifolia with Daffodil "Minnow". Such a wonderful color contrast with this combo but also with bloom time height and fragrance from both! It's a win-win-win-win combination! This is one your friends will envy in a garden by the walkway or in a pot on the patio! #bulbchat
