Early bulb planting boosts bright spring color in gardens
Gardeners can mix bulbs in mass displays, containers, rock gardens or borders. Plant Narcissus early by mid February, then freesias and Dutch iris for fragrance and color. Crowding a dozen bulbs together yields more beauty than a sparse row, with bonemeal and diverse varieties like daffodils, tulips, anemones and ranunculus enhancing the display.
