My tulips and daffodils have mostly come and gone already. Would like to plant more bulbs this fall because I just LOVE them so much! Planted a hyacinth from my mother-in-law. Hopefully she comes back. The front yard looks amazing--I need to shoot photos of everything, get them posted on here, and put up a plant list of the front yard.
Here's a blooming schedule that will help guide my plan:
Spring Bloom (Feb-May)
Candytuft
Dianthus
Tulip
Summer Bloom (May-Aug)
Daylily
Delphinium (I didn't take them out of the ground last year, so I don't think they'll come up)
Iris
Peony
Phlox
Rudbeckia
Yarrow
Fall Bloom (Aug-Frost)
Candytuft Daylilies
Turns out Casey likes Japanese Maples, so I'd like to plant one in front next spring. Okeedoke, that's enough for now. Need to take pictures!
