People who live in apartments also can enjoy the beauty of combination planting flowerbulbs, as long as they have a balcony. All that is required is a container about 6-8" deep with a diameter of 10-15". Put some gravel or medium sized rocks in the bottom for drainage and fill it with some soil. Then, plant 8 Tulip Red Emperor and 12 Narcissi Tete a Tete and cover with soil. Finally, plant 15 Crocus Flower Record and 20 Puschkinia Libanotica and fill the bowl with more soil. Water well and leave it on your balcony (unless it gets extremely cold outside). Of course, you can use other varieties if you wish...check out our POT COLLECTIONS for more suggestions! |

You can garden indoors! We have Amaryllis, Paperwhites and Hyacinths for the Holidays and even some of the other flowerbulbs will do well indoors. These flowerbulbs are identified in our program as being excellent for indoor forcing. We also have beautiful blue pottery with Dutch designs as well as crystal and glass vases for forcing hyacinths and paperwhites. A pamphlet with detailed instructions will be included in your shipment. Indoor gardening gives you a head start on Spring in Winter. No more waiting for Mother Nature to say "Now it's time"!
