There is nothing half so much worth doing as messing about with bulbs. Indoors or outdoors it doesn't matter.

I live for moments like this, a bee on my melancholy thistle

I also saw a bee on this aquilegia but didn't have time to snap a photo.
It can take a long time for seed-grown plants to bloom but this is my longest. I sowed Centaurea montana seeds in 2021. I only had 1 seed germinating. It was in the pot for the last 3 years and seemed to expand but never bloomed. I planted it in the ground recently and noticed a bud yesterday.
