Re: CULT: Discouragement of bloom

Linda.....Your idea was my initial guess.  Kind of like "forcing" only 
instead of wanting them to bloom early we want them to bloom late. 

Those of you that suggested ice/snow...I'd hope we wouldn't have anything 
like that late in the year!  I remember one April when we had a 6 inch 
snow/ice blizzard......rare for us.......my house was surrounded by straw 
trying to keep my tulips and other spring bulbs from freezing to death. 


??(THINKING)??-Maybe I could shovel some snow up this winter and place it in 
a bucket inside my germ. house refrigerator 
and......(INDECISIVENESS)..nah.....to extreme! 

Thanks for all of your help and humor <g>!
