March 22, 2002, Newsletter Issue #39: Brighten up mailboxes or lamp posts

Tip of the Week

Turn simple structures like mailboxes or lamp posts, into visual centerpieces with an encircling parade of flowers from earliest to latest spring. Plant: purple and gold crocus; dainty white snowdrops; pink-and-white narcissi; blue hyacinths; bright white anemone blanda (Greek wind flowers) and tulips of several colors. Position rocks or boulders around the posts, as well, to create added interest.
