There we go, it has started again; I've become impatient. You know how it is, I suppose, you fellow flower enthusiasts? At Promesse de fleurs, we sell bulbs by the dozens, by the hundreds... Enough to make you dream. I find myself thinking about the arrival of the beautiful 'Angélique' and the delicate 'Dark Eyes'. Because, of course, like many gardeners, I am a tad eager. The flowers, the colours, and the scents... I’m being told that it’s not quite the right time: for the lovely dresses of the tulips and the little faces of the muscaris, we’ll have to wait a few more weeks. But, in addition to being impatient, I am a bit stubborn. And I have a craving for flowers, what can I say….
Little manual for the impatient gardener:
Surround yourself with beautiful objects that are just waiting for a second life:
Reclaimed bronze cups, twine, wood
Some bulbs have already undergone forcing (here daffodils and muscaris), we add a few sprigs of vegetation collected from nature:
Various forced bulbs and green accessories
We place the bulbs in the "pots", filling with soil if necessary. Then we surround them with ivy and raffia, we fiddle, tie knots, and readjust. We decorate according to inspiration, here with a branch of symphorine in pink:
Decorative pot of muscaris
Then we wait for the flowering!
