So many problems... so little time in CA
Comments (3)You may have better luck in your second year. I'm a big advocate of planting over grass, as it will compost down and create rich soil. But it's always best to give it several months to decompose before planting. I probably would have gone 2' wide at a minimum, though I don't know how much the narrow width will hinder your garden. I'm in agreement that your wilting is most likely heat. That temp is awfully hot for new plants. If they're turning yellow and wilting, they're getting too much water. If they're staying green and wilting, they're not getting enough water. I always give my plants extra water when the temps go over 90 like they have this week....See MoreNeed ID: Yellow flowers blooming in So CA (Santa Monica)

Comments (12)I've got three boxes of bulbs on my dining table right now! I can't help but order when they first become available, then I'll order a few more from elsewhere, then the sales start to wrap up the season and I can't help it there's a third order! Then spring bulb pre-orders have already started...?!? Easy to Grow Bulbs used to be my favorite, but they've disappointed me more and more lately. Plus shipping is too much, and you have to order $125 for free shipping... Feels silly when I live 15 minutes from them. Longfield Gardens sells slightly smaller bulbs, but is way cheaper and offers free shipping at only $50 order. Their range is a little more limited, too, but if they have what you want I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Then there's always Brent & Becky's... Bulb madness!!!...See MoreAnyone in So Ca near the San Fernando valley want pumpkins?
