I put most of my gardening efforts into growing food, but thought I'd try planting some flower bulbs this fall.

Reminds me I’ve got some daffodil bulbs to plant . . . What’s a good online source of bulbs this time of year (autumn)?

I’ve often thought a fun tool would be a bulb gun.

Maybe the bulb could be encased in a biodegradable plastic “bullet” that would protect it and provide fertilizer.

I’m undecided whether it would be best to be air, hydraulic, or explosive powered, but imagine the fun if you could point a bazooka-like device at the ground, then Boom! - bulb planted.

Could get a lot more men interested in gardening if you combined planting and explosions. And with the NFL waning, think of all those extra Sunday hours available.

I can foresee lawns practically blanketed in crocus, daffodils and tulips.

There is a weekly gardening thread. You might want to post a link to this there.

Camas lillies.
Scroll down to “food use.”

Planting Fall Bulbs is SO worth the effort - especially if you live somewhere with gawd-awful winters like we do. Those first Crocus and Daffs make you want to LIVE again, LOL!
