they come up every year and even spread a little

This is our plan at our "new" house in the country. New for 2.5 year now lol

high quality bulbs

Well our plan except for this part. I think we will do more of better bulbs as we get some of the areas filled in but for now we have a mix of purchased bulbs plus bulbs from neighbors and even some we have dug up in ditches and fields lol

btw Looks like your oak trees are still holding their leaves. Mine are too. I only have a few oak trees so I watch them closely and do everything I can think of to baby them 😊
