the house is also full of the scent of Hyacinths. I know everyone says it from Montdy Don to all the garden centres but it is true those few minutes of effort in October, November do reap phsycological rewards that far out value the price of the bulbs and compost. I have daffodils in pots outside waiting their turn to come inside once the hyacinths are over to eak out the dispaly before the bulbs in the garden take over. I am a little mortified that I ruined soe of the allium bulbs I planted in the boder last Autumn. I forgot about them when planting the trees. It does pay to label these things at least for the first couple of years while you get the positions in your head. Anyway thatls it from me for now.
