BULBS AND BENCHES

Please accept our apologies that this post is coming to you on Friday rather than Thursday. We started it on Thursday, then had some foggy weather that hampered our connectivity. Although the weather is turning chillier, we are thankful that the temperatures are perfect for fall bulb planting!

One of Brigette’s Fall projects is to plant about 100 Spring-blooming bulbs. This is a decrease from last year’s 500 bulbs that she planted, but she’s saving her energy for the White Garden that she wants to install next year. For those of you coming next March, April and May, you (and Brigette, who has already begun counting down the days until Spring) have a lot of flowers to look forward to, including these Begonia Tulips:

Meanwhile, one of Dave’s Fall projects is to create benches with concrete molds to place in various spots on our property. The first one is almost finished and looks great (says Brigette…Dave is modest). These will be perfect for taking in the peaceful scenery of Pisgah National Forest and also for birdwatching.
