I am going to plant a long raised bed with spring bulbs this year and would love to know what you all grow on top to cover the bare ground.
They will be in full sun.
I have only grown bulbs in pots before so this will be an interesting experiment.

Hi Lorraine
I tend to grow my bulbs in mixed borders tucked in between the perennials so I don't need to use ground covers as such, but one of the standard covers which used to be very popular in England was annual forget-me-not. The bright blue looks very well with many spring bulbs.
