So i had fun planting stuff in pots this year. You can see some of the evolution here:

The black-eyed susans took over everything quite nicely, they were white and orange, popped real nice. I'll have other plans for those. I'll try to see if i can save the geraniums. And i might purge some of the hostas as i keep cutting them every year (in half...and share with the neighours) but they keep coming back bigger and strong. Not pictured is how gigantic my coleus became in that big colourful pot with the sweet potato vines.
Now i also committed to a big order of bulbs after those were planted and i just received them about a week ago!?
I've already shared some with the mother in law and the mom/sister
Now because there's a huge construction project happening at the front (i think i have one picture of it) and it won't be done until end of November, i still have to plant the bulbs, probably before mid november.
I have the following:
60 assorted tulips (with some yellows, pink, whites)
15 red double petal tulips
15 assorted daffodils (with yellow/whites)
15 muscaris touch of snow
60 alliums spherosomething
30 pusckinia libotanica (!?)
6 hyacinths
Because of the lack of access to my front porch i'm thinking of doing pots (fabric pots) and creating arrangements that way, so they can get the cool/rooting period over winter and i can just dig big holes in spring and put those fabric pots directly in the ground. That way year after year i can save the bulbs. Is that a good idea? Or would the fabric pots be a bad idea.
