  • Spring bulb thingies

    I can't remember what it was I grew, but they were purply-blue sort of bell shaped things (not bluebells) that came from some bulbs i planted in the window tray things.

    Do I dig them up now or just leave them?

    Just leave them. Plant on top, some nice bedding plants or something.

      Thanks two sheds. I was wondering where to put my marigolds and pretties I've got coming up.

      Might be a good excuse to do some sowing! Woo hooo.

        One more question - do I chop the leaves off the bulb plants or just bury them?

          Leave them to die down naturally is best. They sound like Grape Hyacinths. If so, I'd dig them up and burn them but I'm a well-known hater of Grape Hyacinths!

          If you are seriously tidy, chop them off.

            I dont' think they're hyacinths. I don't like hyacinths..but I think I might trim them - need the space for marigolds or something.

              Grape hyacinths aren't really like hyacinths. Try google images for a pic.
