    Most will be bulbs you have planted already….tulips,daffodils…etc…..but I tend to have all year round plants…not bedding plants….

    Wide choice, but depending on the aspect you generally can’t go wrong with busy lizzies, dahlias, geraniums, cosmos but don’t plant them out until all chance of frost has passed.

    Dahlias are probably the best from that choice as they’re easy to grow from seed, and are perennials.
