Blatherings of an urban gardener who spends more time musing on the patio glass in hand than on digging, planting, weeding, or any other gardening task.
Wonderful video! I'm trying to remember if I ordered tazettas from Brent and Becky...if I did I may keep some inside. Or else I may be making another order.
They are not in water, the little cupped part holds them over the water. (I think I indicated the fill level, but perhaps not)

This is very helpful and thank you for taking the time to show us. Since I can not do mass plantings this year, this forcing will maybe give me the bulb fix I'm needing.
Thanks so much for this video, Elizabeth! Last year was my first attempt at forcing bulbs, and though I read several articles about how to do it, I didn't have much luck. Now I see some of the mistakes I made, including burying the bulbs under too much soil:) This year I'm going to follow your excellent instructions--hopefully, I'll have some indoor blooms to show in February!
