Tammy, Your experience is something we gardeners experience every spring. I can feel your enthusiasm and it's addictive really... So although you've been at it for a year, welcome to the world of excitement in gardening. It's the surprise factor...and it's indeed funny and exciting... It's like you tackled an abstract art painting not quite sure what you'll be coming up with and the results are surprising. I just thought it's a rather interesting and good combination having tulips amidst the black eyed susans. In time the tulips will go dormant and the black eyed susans take over and so you've would have hidden the dying foliage of the tulips effectively. You see tulips get unsightly when they start to go dormant in summer and you need other bloomers to 'distract' the eye and camouflage those yellowing foliage. Leave the tulips in their places. No need to transplant them unless you'd prefer something else in that area. In fact, I practise layering tulips, daffodils and alliums one group atop each other and they all bloom after one another in one tight spot. Looks like a little bouquet and it's very pretty. And I also plant my tulips close to other perennials and it works well. Ianna

Really Funny! I guess I'd better go back to the 18th Century! LOL Dorothy

There were so many funny stories posted years ago. I'd be laughing until the tears were rolling. Anyone remember Marlin, the lady from Cuba who became a US citizen? Her posts and Dottie's were hysterical.

Our great dane used to be able to turn the floor fan on. He'd then sit with his butt on the chair in front of it and enjoy. Also had a cat with a toilet paper fetish. She'd tease the end of the roll within reach of her mouth, grab the end and run with it, unrolling the paper behind her.
