I ended up planting my Tulips and Spring bulbs in a mini ice-age (aka the Arctic snap we experienced in UK last month) – that was tough! In this video, I’m also answering some questions I get a lot about Tulip/Spring bulb planting 😊 I’m so glad it’s done (even if later than what I usually do) and already looking forward to the 2023 display!! If you still have bulbs to plant, now is the time to do so!! Happy Sunday xx
