For my containered plants I am using an all purpose soil. Looks about like black dirt or I will use dirt from my garden with home generated compost. Our home soil is mainly gold sand so we put the humous with it and it makes a fair soil. I generally do not use compost that is manufactured and processed because I have seen how some of the compost processers make the stuff and personally I would be getting a soil test kit on those bags and be testing for foreign pollutants such as heavy metals. Its very aggrivating how ill conceived some of the composting operations do their methods only to learn that some processors literally take in harmful garbage. The stuff is just about as far from "organic" as you can get.

We raise horses and other animals and so we make out own and so I know what is in our compost is 100% organic and pure and untainted.

YOur narcissus is lovely! Right now I only have one impatein and it is the orange one pictured above. I had pink and white, but those colores fizzeled on me. I love the doubles and will have to try thouse!

Here is a pic of my GPS!
