COLCHICUM, FALL CROCUS
Colchium are beautiful light pink and purple crocus that bloom in the fall bringing a magical spring-like treasure to your autumn garden. This fall blooming crocus is such an exception because once planted it it blooms almost immediately. In the spring it emerges with green foliage until early summer where the foliage dies back, and the bulb remains dormant until it blooms again in fall. It is a wonderful addition to any garden adding a burst of fall color as well as it's ability to easily naturalize and come back year after year. They are a stunning addition around patios, walkways, in front of shrubs, among low growing perrenials or in meadows. Colchicum are in full bloom right now at Vineyard Gardens.

WHAT’S BLOOMING AROUND THE NURSERY
THIS FALL THINK SPRING
FALL CONTAINER GARDENING
Planting bulbs in containers offers a solution to gardeners who lack the space to create a full garden. Spring blooming bulbs can be grown in decorative pots to add accents to patios, decks and entryways. Bulbs planted in beds outside require little maintenance, however, with a few guidelines and commitment, container bulbs can prove to be equally as easy. Guiding your customers to plant bulbs in containers also offers you the chance to upsell extra product within the garden center and increase your fall sales.
TOP 3 REASONS TO GARDEN IN CONTAINERS
1. Reach the market of millennials, urban gardeners and others with limited garden space.
2. One way to prevent animals from eating or digging up your bulbs. Most animals tend to stay away from patios or decks where people hangout.
3. Adds color to your deck or patio before annuals can be planted safely. Bulbs start blooming as early as February or March well before last frost. Use annual containers to plant bulbs and extend color by several months.
Planning your spring garden. Bulbs make for easy, efficient planting for spring color, and planning facilitates the process. Start thinking about spring blooms, and in turn, fall bulbs.
For fall color, plant pansies and mums over tulips,daffodils and hyacinths bulbs. You'll get fall color up to the first frost, then spring color when winter fades.
