Jane, please explain what that means.
... When you write "under a bulb frame" it makes me think of your
bulb frame as some
sort of cloche. What does it mean?
If you want the total details on my bulb frames, please see the
Timber Press/NARGS book "Rock Garden Design and Construction." Breve,
it is an unheated cold frame,
Sorry, I am just finishing up moving and my computer, while now very
fast indeed, is not quite configured as I am used to. Also, no more
bulb frames: I now have a bulb house, and all that needs to be
finished is planting the spring crocuses and putting on the top layer
of sand and some topdressing. I am very, very tired.
