I planted 100 generic daffodils in Ning's border, clusters of 4,5,6. Plus big Allium gigantum which I grew last year in the onion bed. Moved catnip and 2 small raspberry starts out of bearded iris bed#3, and into the bee garden. Both grow too large to remain among the bearded irises. Tidied up a little more of that raised bed, and planted grape hyacinth and smaller types of narcissus. Planted some bunches of daffodils in the bee garden.
That's about all. Too wet, and I'm tired. It sounds like a lot, but was only about 2 hours, split into slow 1 hour sessions, one in am and one in pm.
Daffodils - and possibly all narcissus - are considered deer resistant and rabbit resistant. Last year something ate a few, but left most alone. Must taste bad. Grape hyacinths / Muscari are also considered deer and rabbit resistant, but most were eaten down to the ground.
Alliums are also considered animal resistant. Some varieties did well last year, some were sparse. I planted a few more purple alliums.
A few more small bags and half of a big bag of bulbs, left to plant.
