Spring is on its way!

Planted a few bulbs in my lunch break!! 
Also made use of some old Jars along with some beautiful antique lace that my grandma kindly gave me to bring spring indoors as well.



They make beautiful gifts and flower for weeks, releasing a beautiful scent. 
simply plant the bulbs in the different size jars add some compost with a bit of extra feed in (as they wont get the nutrients from outside) and voilĂ  a beautiful indoor plant that doesn't look naff! 





Once the flowers are over, just dig them out either dry the bulbs or just plant in garden and they will pop up again year after year. You can also put them in just water which looks rather pretty especially when the roots start to fill up the jars. 


Of course a it isn't essential to have a silly Dachshund helping you! but they are extremely keen gardeners! 





How very quintessentially British! 
Give it a go
