Bulbs Galore!

These pictures of cute mini narcissi in one of my back beds are for Annabelle, whose yard is being plagued by the dastardly, bulb-eating Narcissus Fly. Die, Fly, Die! It's funny--most of my daffs out front are done but I'm just getting some in back--must have to do with when I planted them or the sun or something.



Whatever--I am enjoying the hell out of them!
Following is a white daffodil with"Powys Castle" artemisia.

And next, A., here is one of the cymbister (?) amar
ylli you sent me to save them from the Dastardly Bulb Fly. I *think* this one is "La Paz," but if not, let me know...























And finally, we'll end on a really cute tulip and anemone, from the days before the Work-boot Stomp-a-thon:

Ooooooh, preeeeeeeeeeeeeeety! All the pitchahs are gorgeous; thanks so much, Vic.

I think that Hip. you've got blooming is 'Ruby Meyer,' which is red with green and white veining. 'La Paz' is more coral--at least more coral than that photo seems to be.

Love the daffs.

Okay, I looked again, and I think you're right--the Hip. is 'La Paz.'
