Plants , Gardening , Bulbs Most of us suffer from this every spring. First the bulbs peek out of the ground and we are elated.
Spring is here.
And then we enjoy the wonderful display of tulips, daffodils, scilla, hyacinths and other spring bulbs that emerge and burst into glorious bloom, and our hearts are gladdened. The flowers are done, and what you have left are a lot of leaves just standing there not doing much of anything. And then, to add insult to injury, those leaves start to turn yellow. And the worst thing of all is - you must leave that hideous foliage where it is, in all of its ugliness. If you don't, you won't have that heart-gladdening spring again next year.
