Forcing Bulbs for Indoors - Garden Tips from Carey's Garden Centre - Minden



Is there anything better, during the deep, dark depths of winter, than spring flowering bulbs brightening an otherwise dull day?

Now's a good time to get going on that. Forcing bulbs is easy!

It's also easy to thank oneself, a couple of months down the road, for taking the time now to do it!

Hyacinth, Tulips, Narcissus (Daffodils), Crocus, Iris reticulata, and more, are all good candidates for forcing in pots. Plant some up mpw, put them in the fridge, then pull them out in mid February, and just enjoy, knowing that Spring is just around the corner!

Thanks for visiting!
