Simple Containers for Bulbs

It's easy to forget that you don't need special vases in which to force bulbs. These two photos from the Rose and Radish blog are a reminder that you may very well have the perfect container already in your cupboard.

When we went scrounging in our kitchen for something to plant paperwhites in, we came up with several white bowls from the flea market. They're perfect.

    I planted my paperwhite bulbs in a crystal bowl we got for our wedding and never used. It looked great because you could see through it to the dirt through the cut crystal, gorgeous!
