My friends, I’ve found the key to happiness. Well, that might be too broad of a statement. Let me get a bit more specific: I’ve found the key to happiness in March and April for gardeners in climates where winters are long and cold. The secret? BULBS!

Now, I know what you’re thinking: Planting bulbs is a lot of work for such a short bloom time. Can’t I just find happiness in a bottle of Cabernet?
