bulbs

turns out i forgot a bag of bulbs in the fall.  it was a variety bag, so i took the biggest empty pots i had and made a few bulby container gardens.  i'm hoping it works.  i also took the long container i have and planted snapdragon and petunia seeds in it.  no real method to it, just sprinkled them on to see what happens.  the petunia seedlings i thought were dead last year turned out to be very much alive and went crazy where i mixed the dirt into an existing bed.  the dahlias and lavender i will plant in the ground when it gets warmer and all the damned snow melts.  at least the bulbs and perennials already in the ground are staying nice and moist.
