    Great site Catztail ! We love Tulips , so I may buy a few varieties from the site this autumn :dbgrtmb:
    I plant quite a few early and late tulips in beds and containers every year , they are such a stunning spring flower . This year though I had a lot of problems with stunted growth in my containers , must have been the very cold winter. I am going to try and protect the containers a little better this year.

      I do them in containers too. I just bought 2 more galvanized drinks buckets from Sainsburys to put some in. They are large buckets with handles and I just have Hubby drill holes in them and then cram loads of spring bulbs in for a nice movable display. The buckets are on offer now since the bbq season is winding down and they are in a hurry to get their x-mas stuff out....... I paid £7.50 each. Try and find that sort of price in the garden center!
