Today I planted the bulbs ordered from Brant and Becky's in Gloucester.

Five Tulip 'Bright Parrot'went to the right of the front entrance (facing).  The catalog says: "Bright Parrot - ...and bright it is! a true 55 mph flower that will draw eyes from great distances; with the substance and thickness of the petals, this one should put on a show for a long time! 16"-18"; mid-late spring".

Five Hyacinthus orientalis 'Chicago' went to the left, where I hope their scent may be enjoyed by visitors.  The copy says "Chicago - a lovely new one with shimmering blue florets; an awesome color for an awesome city, which ought to create magical garden combos; 6"-10"'.

On the drive, about halfway from the mailbox to the fork in the drive on the right Ida Lee and I had noticed a region with few daffodils last year.  I referred to the photo we had taken and planted three groups of five in the blank area just southeast of the dogwood tree in front of the azaleas.  Closest to the fork were Narcissus 'Trepolo', the more expensive of the trio of plantings, one of which had a second bulb growing alongside the larger.  one of the most colorful of the sunburst type split coronas we have seen; it's a real eye-popper! Late mid spring; 14"-18".

In the middle went Narcissus 'Sir Winston Churchill' large single bulbs. Of this, Brent and Becky remark: '  3-5 silver dollar sized creamy white flowers with orange flecks; a sport of N. 'Geranium', it has the same great fragrance and perennial habits; 15"-17"; late-mid spring.'

Closest to the mailbox I put Narcissus 'Delnashaugh'--all of these had a second bulb but one.  Of this one, Brent and Becky say 'white, very large, overlapping, rounded petals that surround a tight cluster of apricot pink inner segments, making a statement in the garden and on the show bench; 16"-18"; late spring;.
