Meadows and woodlands provide graceful, serene environments that are rendered even more appealing with the addition of bountiful bulbs that emerge and bloom, then settle in for the season—only to emerge again andspread to create a pleasing carpet or river of color. For a low-maintenance and native-style installation, there's a wide variety of bulbs that naturalize to create swaths of color and groundcover, often extending the season of bloom from early spring through fall. And they're well behaved, so there's very little risk of invasiveness.
