A2: Gardening

The Baltimore Sun publishes a gardening column by Susan Reimer about crocuses – it’s bulb-ordering season, and these flowers can be planted in early fall. The column quotes Scott Kunst, owner of Old House Gardens heirloom bulbs of Ann Arbor: ”I love that they are so early. And they are among the iconic flowers: tulips, lilies and lilacs. Winter aconite is not the stuff of legends or poetry. Crocuses are. Every elementary school kid knows what a crocus is.” [Source]
