It's getting close to the deadline for articles for our newsletter: The Bulb Garden. Please consider writing one. I am particularly short of what I call 'Plant Profiles'. This is a short (100-250 word) article about a geophyte you particularly like to grow in your garden, the conditions it needs to grow well, and a description of the companion plants that set it off attractively, along with a short list of sources. Another article that would be lovely is how you handle closing down one of your beds for winter: That is, what you have planted in a group, how you prepare it for dormancy as fall arrives, and so on... If you have questions about or suggestions for the newsletter, please write me at: meenglis@cts.com Marguerite English, Editor: 'The Bulb Garden' Pacific Bulb Society For information and membership forms, view http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/
