Bulbs: Rocks as Bulb companions, 1 by Todd_Boland

I've been using bulbs in my rock garden ever since I built it. It's a great way to start the season off. The advantage of the rock mulch is that it keeps our spring rains from spoiling the blossoms (no mud splatter with a stone mulch!). I use mostly spring or late-fall flowering bulbs. I have plenty of perennials to keep the rock garden full in summer. However, I do use a number of alliums so I guess I do have some summer bulbs.
