The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden is selling spring-blooming bulbs for fall and winter planting. Bulb packages range from $13 to $83 and include hyacinths, muscari, daffodils, paperwhites and tulips. Admirers of the largest floral festival in the Southwest, Dallas Blooms, are invited to purchase the same bulb varieties that the Dallas Arboretum plants in its gardens.
The ideal planting time is either late November or early December because in Texas we have to wait longer for the soil temperature to be 55 degrees or less. Try planting different varieties of bulbs that have different bloom times.
Orders are open through October 10 with shipments starting in late November, just in time for perfect fall planting. Bulb purchases can be made online at shop.dallasarboretum.org/spring-bulbs.html.
