My bloke has just come home wih a bag of bulbs and planted them, I did try telling him that bulbs are usually planted after summer ready for following spring. Any chance these will actually flower this year?

he probably wouldnt notice :-) Are ther any flowers we can put in that last all year round?

welshlibranr

not really 4get, you need to plant shrubs, and bulbs, and then maybe some Summer bedding plants to give Summer colour, but go to your local Garden Centre, they will be able to help!.....If you want year long colour, then you need to plant a variety of plants!...............
