Seasonal Color Changes

Seasonal Color Changes
Every gardening loyalist loves the thought of having various splashes of seasonal color through out the year in their gardens. The sight of different textures,colors,and scents adds excitement,class and pleasure to the gardener and/or business owner. The cost of doing seasonal color changes may cause many folks to abandon the idea completely as the cost of installing flats of color can be expensive depending on what type of plant materials are being used and how much planter bed area needs to be covered. For many years, I have suggested to my clients that love a lot of color in their planter beds to entertain the idea of planting various flower bulbs within the planter beds along with the foundation shrubs and plants that set the stage for the color display. Iris,tulips,cycamens and the like are fantastic bulbs to incorporate in the planter bed areas. seeing the various types of bulbs pop their heads through the chipped mulch and ground covers is a beautiful site. Being able to cut fresh flowers for your living room or dining room table adds class and savings to your home or business desk. Spending the extra money on quality bulbs is important and also making sure the bulbs you choose are the best selections for your planting zone is a must. By going on-line and reviewing the numerous bulb supplier catalogs and planning what bulbs grow well under certain conditions and areas within the planter beds. Through time your bulbs will multiply and you will be able to share your bounty with friends and business associates. A gift of some special home grown bulbs is a special and unique gift that your friends will always remember. Look for the end of the year specials on bulbs at your favorite nurseries right now but just be careful and pick and choose those bulbs that are healthy,plump and suitable for your growing region or zone.
