Round Pond
After seeing my photo, my cousin allowed that her mother spent her inheritance at White Flower Farm. That would be easy to do! Their prices are steep but their quality is unsurpassed.

Once uncovered within three or four days the entire basket was filled with sprouting bulbs of every kind. What a pleasure to see something so colorful and so full of scent this time of year.
