Layered bulbs in containers

As we enter fall we are reminded to plant our spring blooming bulbs. Donna Wright from Black Gold reminded us that bulbs are great in pots too!  You can create waves of color by layering your spring blooming bulbs.

Donna demonstrated that by using different layers of bulbs in a pot you can have color that lasts all spring!  She used daffodils, tulips and crocus in three different layers. When the warm days of spring arrive she will have these bulbs blooming at different times and will have waves of color for months. But always remember to start with a quality potting soil, like Black Gold!
