  1. You can find daffodils anywhere.  Just dig them up (not from your neighbor's garden without permission) and divide them after the flowers are done.  Prepare the planting bed well and spread them out to at least a foot apart.  In about three years they will start to fill in and you can leave them in place without crowding or losing blooms for at least ten years.  Look on the internet for planting directions or call your county Master Gardeners for specific planting information.  Clearfield and Jefferson can call 849-7361.

     

    Once those bulbs are done flowering this spring you can dig them up and store them in a refrigerator in peat moss till fall if absolutely necessary, or you can transplant them directly back in to the garden.  They will not flower as well if they are dug up then but they will survive.  The new planting location must be prepared well.

     

    You can also mark where they are in a current garden and dig them in the fall when they are already fat and sassy from summer bulb growth.  Then they will flower better next spring. 

     

    You can also find them in local stores about the end of August although there isn't a lot of variety like you will find in the catalogs.

     

    You can also call me and come with a shovel in a few weeks for daffodils.  Mine have been in place successfully since 1993 and they bloom great.  If the bed is not prepared well they will get overcrowded and not produce many blossoms for as long.

    I received a tulip plant, when it is done blooming what should I do with it so that it can be planted in the fall. I never have had luck with bulbs other than my iris.
  2. I think his name was Buzz Bajardi. I remember him when I was a child and the storys of his "super strength". Was just talking about him with someone the other day.He lived in a shack where Christ the King now is. I had heard then he could lift a railroad car. He never seemed to bother anyone. I also would be interested to know more about him.
