Garden centre was nice. At this time of year, very much in between seasons, some empty shelves where the summer flowers and herbs will go, lots of boxes and racks of things waiting to be part of a display, and so on. But still lots of spring bedding plants and all-year shrubs, and some things that smelt lovely.
I bought the seed potatoes I wanted, and some tulips and irises that I'll attempt to grow outside the back porch. I also bought garlic; I don't know if I'll be able to grow it successfully but you never know if you don't try.
I have a quick question about the garlic for my #gardening friends:
It seems like I should wait just a little bit before planting the garlic out. There might still be some real harshness left in the winter. Should I just store the bulbs in a cool, dark, dry place until I'm ready to use them?
