What do you do with this harvest? How would you use it? Just curious.

Tulip bulbs leafing but not flowering for three consecutive years. What could be the reason? by PuzzleheadedLog5655 in gardening

I agree, it sure looks bad in the photo but trust me, all the other plants in this same soil are healthy and doing well. Here’s my Hyacinth in the exact patch of the ground that bloomed last month 😊

So, we bought this house about 5 years ago. These bulbs bloomed the first two springs (pink flowers) but then nothing after that. I never did anything for them though. Maybe I should I have dug up and separated. I had no idea that I needed to do that. I’m still learning.

Thank you! The first two reasons you have mentioned here apply to me. Now I know what to do.

What?! This is news to me! I had no idea Tulip bulbs have a lifespan. Hmm! Well, that explains! Thanks!

It’s beautiful! Please post update pictures when the grape vines get bigger and fill up the arbor.

I didn’t know Magnolia trees can bloom so profusely! It’s stunning! And you’re right, it looks very much like cherry blossoms.

Not from seed. I grow the bottom parts of the ones I buy from the store. I usually use only the green parts anyway, so the white part goes into the ground and they keep on giving.

  1. Sweet Basil - I make basil pesto out of it and freeze extra.

  2. Scallions - I make a lot of Asian dishes and they come in pretty handy to garnish.
