The Perfect Marriage.....crocuses with daffodils...

Purple crosuses look great with yellow daffodils.






























Plant an abundance of crosuses among your daffodils.  They will pop up early to encourage you.  Depending on the bloom time of your daffodils, they may still be blooming when the tall yellow faces appear.
Plant in groups of 15-25 for best effect.

If you don't have time or garden space, purchase a large pot and some potting soil.  In the pot or in the ground, the bulbs need to go through a winter season outside in order to bloom in the spring.  Set the pot in a sunny location, water it and wait for spring.  If the idea of an "empty" pot is not appealing to you, purchase a small evergreen shrub for the center and plant the crocuses all around it.


Happy Gardening!
