Hooray For More Bulbs!

Well, I wasn't really having the best day a few days ago, and to cheer myself up decided to wander around the garden section at Walmart and Lowe's. For a gardening addict who is trying to save money, this is a dangerous thing. It's bulb season! I've been contemplating ordering some Lilies of the Valley for a few weeks now from a company online, but low and behold Walmart had them for less than half the cost they would have been. I really hate that store (it's taking over the world one crappy product at a time), but how can I deny that price difference, especially when I was distraught?

So, that night, I purchased plumtart gladiolus, mixed color ranunculus, white lilies of the valley, and pink and white bleeding hearts. They were all so pretty, I could have gone completely wild and bought a bunch more, but I restrained myself especially since I'm not sure where I will be living in a month. As it is, if I end up in an apartment, my place will look like a jungle. I'm hoping to find a house to rent, but that still waits to be seen.

Anyway... tangent sorry. I planted those bulbs today (all in pots so they can move with me - like the rest of my garden). I can't wait to see them. Hopefully it's no too long of a wait.
