We planted them New Year's eve. :-) I'm sure hoping they give her a bright colorful new spring in her new home.
Amazing!

Well. I was not totally comfortable planting on New Year's Eve. But, thekids have that brand new house - and I had all those bulbs and no house at which to plant them. She's not had much chance to do gardening with all the army travel - so she and I had an afternoon of planting.

It's a lot colder in northern Alabama than it has been around here. Not sure whether those will make it. But, some of them were iris bulbs my Grama gave me over 20 years ago. Beautiful hybrids. I'm hoping that's going to give her something special for her "first home." :-)
