You can never have enough...

I was thinking this morning, in that transition phase between waking up and actually opening eyes, about spring bulbs, and how maybe it is time to pull the tulips out of their boxes and pop them into the fridge. And maybe buying some grape hyacinths seeing the ones I had have been overrun by the blue stars. I have seen a couple of images on the socials of grouped terracotta pots with little plantings of bulbs and pretty cowslips and violas, and I am thinking how lovely they'd be on the deck table in August and September before the peach blossom comes in. And I have a nice collection of old terracottas and the round wire tray to hold them all. Then there are all those lachenalias I collected to fill one big pot this year, to put by the front door, to set the coldest weeks on fire with their red and orange flame flowers.

And that is what a chill in the morning air does to me!
