Re: Bulbs in Texas ?

Some daffodils do well in the South, Seventeen Sisters (called Avalanche
up North), Mount Hood, Falconet, Erlicher, Geranium, jonquils,
Tete-a-Tete minis and tazetta daff. Dutch irises, iphieons, Spanish
bluebells, paperwhites, leucojums, spider lilies, purple oxalis, any
crocuses the squirrels don't eat (few), some of the species tulips,
lilies if you plant them in pots (they get colder that way - our ground
doesn't freeze but the soil in the pots will). Stuff like that.
