Forcing Spring
At a baby shower a while back, we were given pink tulip bulbs for party favors. We were instructed on how to force them. I put them in my bag and found them a couple days later so, I decided to give it a try!
Got spring? Here's how...
Fill a quart glass jar with river rocks to within a couple inches of the top of jar. Nestle the bulbs in the rocks. Fill jar with water up to just beneath the bulbs but not touching them. The roots will begin to grow down into the water. Continue to add water to jar daily to keep the roots in water.
I started my bulbs on January 1st...
on January 7th
on January 14th
on January 21st
on January 26th
on February 2nd
on February 3rd
and on February 4th
Thanks Heather! I just might make it until spring...
