April Showers bring

May flowers!

You've heard the joke- usually told around Thanksgiving-
If April showers bring May flowers...
What do May flowers bring?
.................................. Pilgrims.
A classic in elementary school humor.

Now is the time to think about planting for those Spring flowers- especially if you want daffodils and tulips. We have several gorgeous books on Bulbs. One is by John E. Bryan (SB425. B74 2002). I measured the spine and the book is two inches thick - magnificent pictures (some photographs, some drawings), informative text, with a Glossary, a bibliography, an index of common names (so you can discover that daffodils are really narcissus).

Our Horticulture program regularly wins awards at the American Landscape Contractors Association events. Our library supports the program with a variety of print materials.
