Bulbs Explained
FROM WILMA: In botany a bulb is a short underground stem that functions as a storage organ during dormancy. In gardening other types of storage organs like corms, rhizomes, and tubers are often referred to as bulbs. It seems almost magical that a bulb which is sometimes unattractive can produce beautiful plants/flowers.
 
With the recent warm temperatures daffodils, crocus, and other early spring-flowering bulbs seem extra prolific this year. Tulips and other spring-flowering bulbs bloom later in the season. The time to plant spring-flowering bulbs is in the fall.
 
Summer-flowering bulbs like dahlias, lilies, and gladiolus make excellent cut flowers. Others like tuberous begonias are great for containers and hanging baskets. Elephant ears are striking in the garden as well as in large containers. We recently received a shipment of top-quality summer bulbs that are on display in the Garden Shop. For best selection purchase them now and store in a cool, dry place until the danger of frost is over before planting them.
