🌷 Forcing Bulbs for Winter Blooms
Bring the beauty of spring indoors!
When the garden outside is sleeping under a blanket of snow, you can still fill your home with vibrant color and fragrance. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn the art and science of forcing bulbs - a simple technique that encourages spring flowers like tulips, hyacinths, and daffodils to bloom indoors during the coldest months of the year.
I'll walk participants through each step, from choosing and chilling bulbs to potting, timing, and caring for them so they burst into bloom just when you need a lift the most. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just discovering your green thumb, you'll leave with the knowledge and inspiration to create your own winter garden wonderland.
