New York, 10017 Dept. LAC Let It Grow Spring Color Begins Now By PATSHEDESKY Right now spring seems far in the distant future, but this is the time to plan ahead. Remembering those colorful plantings that were admired last spring is a good reminder not to leave another year pass without some early color of our own. The term collectively takes in all perennial bulbs blooming in spring and these provide the greatest color impact. Whether you have a dozen or a hundred dozen bulbs to plant, there are few places in the landscape where their early color cannot be enjoyed.

A handful of brilliant tulips tucked among the evergreens here and there is a welcome surprise come spring. If petunias or geraniums usually occupy a place near the entrance door, have color weeks earlier by placing a few bulbs there. Use plenty of spring bulbs in the perennial border. Large clumps of a dozen or more bulbs of tulips, narcissus, crocus, hyacinths provides colorful interest to the border long before other perennials begin. Utilizing a few early blooming plants such as the hardy little lavender phlox, Iberis or hardy candytuft and golden euphorbia adds fullness and additional interest to the spring border.

Some hints when planning to add bulbs to the mixed border: First plant in groups of a solid color Six red or pink tulips or a dozen narcissus will be much more effective in a clump than if spread sparsely throughout the garden Also if working on a limited budget, a few dozen quality bulbs can be added each year without disturbing older clumps. Second, utilize the chance to place taller growing varieties deep in the garden rather than to merely skirt the edge. The main advantage is that space is then available for foreground plantings that will conceal the bulbs' yellowing foliage after bloom has past. Even if the garden is only five feet wide, tulips and cissus can go a couple feet in from the edge with plenty of room for iris, lupines, daisies, etc. in front.

Hyacinths, crocus, grape hyacinths, scilla and other low growing bulbs should be planted close to the edge so they are not hidden from view. Clumps of these bulbs can be spaced a few feet apart thereby leaving room for spreading annual plants between. Solid beds of spring bulbs are always attractive although the drying foliage could be unsightly if the bulbs are not dug up after blooming. Also height variations are more noticeable in large plantings. Tulip heights for instance can range from 12 inches to 32 inches so it pays to study a catalog for descriptions before ordering.

Tulips are undoubtedly the most popular of the spring bulbs. They not only thrive reasonably well in our area but with over a dozen different types to choose from, it is possible to have tulips in bloom from early April until late May. There are early and late singles, some with fringed blooms, some that resemble lilies, early and late peony-like doubles, tiny botanical varieties ideal for rock gardens and huge Darwin Hybrids with blooms five inches deep. Bulb planting begins around the end of September and extends into October. Earlier ordering will insure top quality bulbs.

No bulb will thrive in a poorly drained area where water accumulates. In fact, where soil is heavy, a few inches of sand or fine gravel beneath the bulbs is recommended. Spring bulbs appreciate a rich soil and it is best to remove the soil for each clump and work quantities of compost, manure and bonemeal below the bulb. Manure should never come in contact with bulbs so a layer of soil, sand or compost between works well. Always nestle bulbs firmly into the soil.

Poking out holes with a sharp trowel usually makes a pointed hole and the bulb would rest in an air pocket. Tamp the soil lightly as you cover. I fill each depression half full, apply some water, then finish filling ending with a slight mound. If the fall months are dry, they should be watered each week. Determining depth and distance apart to plant, the small bulbs of crocus, grape hyacinth, etc can be planted a few inches deep and apart.

Hyacinths about five inches, deeper than this may cause rot. Narcissus bulbs vary in size, so best rule of thumb Is to cover two times the height of the bulb. Tulips seem to do best when planted quite deep no less than eight inches. Next Week: Lilies Are Easy Winona Post Office Is Damaged By Car WINONA, Minn. (AP) The Post Office got a special delivery Friday.

A car which police said was driven by Mrs. Carl Gernes of Goodview smashed into the building, doing some $10,000 in damages. After going through two plate glass windows, it ran into the service counter in the lobby. Mrs. Gernes was not reported hurt.

Officers said she apparently stepped on the accelerator instead of the brake in a parking lot. LARGE SELECTION SI I OUR Imported Raaldantial Chandaliar HARDWARE PEARL ST. PH. 782-6316 REMODELING? CALL 788-6844 SUN' RESIDENTIAL REMODELING Opart Monday thru Friday 8 a.m. to 3 pan.
