April 22/11 Senga's Vlog Growing Crocuses in your lawn

[sengalindsay]

Hi There:

Here in Vancouver it is the squirrels that get into our crocuses. So we plant them very late in the fall (ground almost frozen - for some reason they are not so much on the hunt for food (maybe stored away most of their stores) and I also add bloodmeal to each hole.

An alnternative is that you might want to use minature daffodils. Seems like all critters are not fond of them.

Cheers and thanks for watching

Senga

So pretty! In my Wisconsin yard I planted my grass with crocus, but no one told me that the bunnies and deer love crocus. I have one or maybe two that they didn't eat. I discovered that they didn't eat scillas and they naturalize easily also. Thank you for your wonderful vlog. Smiles, Lark

I did this about 4 years ago and am really happy that I did.
