The Bees will be Happy in a few months


Assuming I get over this nasty cold that has me suffering, I will plant numerous treats for the bees this weekend. My annual tulip shipment will arrive today. I really like tulips and have ordered 400 bulbs. I order the bulbs from Color Blends in Holland and always have them chilled until early December. Tulip bulbs need about 15 weeks of cool weather to produce a large flower, thus pre chilling the bulb helps in mild climates such as Charlotte.

If your curious this year I am planting Roi du Midi bulbs.
