A Different Easter Basket

Another nice benefit of working with already blooming plants is that you can be sure your flowers are ready for the holidays. Narcissus 'Cragford' (Tazetta Narcissus) and Tulip 'Rubato' make a festive Easter basket.

The Netherlands Flower Bulb Information Center suggests that for best results and longest enjoyment, choose pots with young green sprouts just beginning to show buds so you can watch them grow and bloom over time.
