Bulb Tip Sheets
My favourite mail-order bulb folks Botanus have added a “Tip Sheets” section to their website to house PDFs with handy info on various bulb related gardening tasks. The library isn’t huge as of yet, though they promise they’ll be adding to it. There’s a few different documents related to the planting, care and growing of Clematis, including this one for growing Clematis, one for Gladiolus and Thrips, a timely one for garden prep for planting Spring bulbs and a handful more. I haven’t read them thoroughly to see how useful they are, though in the past tip sheets that have accompanied their orders and email newsletter I’ve found very handy.
I love it when companies like this decide that sharing information with their customers is a good way to build and maintain a loyal following. Always works for me.

i love Botanus. The ladies have personally emailed me back when I ask dumb questions. I have had a lot of luck with their perennials in particular. I should make my order soon. I love me some glads!
