Product Review: Blooming Bulb Daffodils

Now is the time to plant bulbs for a beautiful spring display. After a long dreary winter, there is nothing more uplifting than a patch of spring flowers. Daffodils are one of the most economical varieties to plant because they naturalize easily, providing the gardener with many years of enjoyment.

With a super high customer satisfaction rating of 96% at GardenWatchdog, Blooming Bulb Nursery offers a selection of 18 varieties of daffodils.

Pros:
· Lower prices than other competitors.
· Small quantities can be purchased.
· Additional Savings on large orders.
· Extensive information on products.
· 100% guarantee policy.
· Helpful online planting instructions.

Cons:
· A limited number of varieties available.
· Lack of a plant finder to search for specific colors.

Blooming Bulb sells exclusively over the Internet and in an effort to keep costs low for their customers, they do not print or mail catalogs.

Each bulb variety they offer includes the common and botanical name, color and flower description, bloom time, height, type/size, hardiness zone and sun requirements. In addition, they provide a link to planting instructions to increase your success in growing daffodils.

As an added benefit you can save an additional 10% on your order by subscribing to their newsletter.

I garden in zone 9, so can only enjoy spring bulbs in pots, so I asked some of my northern gardening friends to suggest some of their favorites. Each one of their lists contained these five daffodils: Amber Gate, Carlton, Tete a Tete, Replete and Tahiti. As a special treat, buy a few extra and plant them in a pot to enjoy indoors.

Product Review: Wire Compost Bin

As fall arrives with its magnificent show of warm colors in the landscape, it is a sight to behold. But as the show ends many people toss the leaves out without realizing the benefit of composting them. When composted they turn into a natural, rich nutrient that enhances the garden soil, which in turn requires less fertilizer.

An easy and economical way to compost leaves, without making an investment in an enclosed composter is a simple wire bin.

Pros:
Great for small yards
Light weight
Easy to assemble
Easy to store when not in use
Economical price

Cons:
Need to add water more often
Composts a little slower than an enclosed compost bin

The wire bin is easily assembled and held together with corner rods. When not in use, pull out the rods, and it folds up flat for easy storage.

In researching some popular garden forums, the wire bin (#34-646) at Gardener’s Supply Co. is a favorite.

Their wire bin holds 128 dry gallons of leaves and is 35 ½ width x 27 ½ height. It is made of heavy-gauge steel with a rust-resistant plastic coating and last for years, even if used year round.
