Time to pull the tulips and plant asters and painted daisies

General gardening, Spring Bulbs

In zone 8b tulips are grown as annuals. I am happy to try asters and painted daisies this year. I will update later.

The tulips are winding down and they are treated as annuals in my climate but I have some painted daisies and asters to try this year.
