    I think I speak for most of us when I say turn that camera on and just let it roll! I'd happily watch hours of conversation with any of the horticultural icons you've been visiting. Don't skimp on the video length on our behalf, Jim. Bring it on! 💜

    • @ncallick4226
      @ncallick4226 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The thing to remember about tulips is that they prefer hot and dry summers. If possible plant them somewhere where they aren't getting watered with your other plants. They prefer cold wet winters. That's one reason they don't come back reliably.

      I'm not trying to sell you anything, but you should see the collection of things that the nursery has protected, or collected, or introduced. 27000 taxa is not cheap to maintain. I just want to get some of his knowledge into the world. Again, buy from where you are comfortable.
