[Green] Summer homes for daffodils

[Rebecca Phillips]

Hello, all,

Plant guru Andrew and I decided that the riverbank daffodils are WAY too overcrowded and need to be separated and spaced out over the entire planting area come fall. I went down this morning and filled four forty-pound bags with bulbs--and that's not all of them. My initial plan was to plop them all in large pots on the back walkway, but there are literally hundreds (thousands?) of starved baby bulbs sitting in bags right now. And there are more! (I ran out of bags. And I didn't even get to the magic lilies, most of which also need temporary homes.) Would anyone have a patch of currently-unused ground in full or partial sun where I could dig them (or some of them) in for the summer? Or five-gallon pots you aren't using? We have enough bulbs to brighten a large area if we can find space to grow them on to healthy planting size.
