So today after work I build some tulip cages! It is basically two rods shoved in the ground with chicken wire around them. I'm hoping this Spring, our third at the house, I will actually get to see what color they are when they bloom. I got a bud last year before the deer chomped them all to the ground. So this year I built two cages. One on a purple and green leafed tulip in the garden by the street and one on a green leafed tulip near the from porch. Unfortunately my tulips are all over the place because when I was digging up all the daffodils I accidentally dug up the tulips too and all the bulbs were mixed together! Oops, (the first spring the deer got to the tulips so quick, I didn't know I had them till year 2 when strange leaves started appearing among the daffodils.)! This does however give my tulips a little cover before the deer munch them down, seeing as they are camouflaged by the daffodils which the dear are not quiet as fond of. So, hopefully they work! They look like weird fuzzy cacti!
