    December is the time to plant your springtime bulbs, and ours are already chilled for you! Buy some pre-chilled bulbs and listen to our 2nd Saturday speaker at 10:00 a.m.,Bettie Abbate, Professor of Horticulture at Delgado Community College. She will explain why we "chill" bulbs, naturalize bulbs, and which bulbs we should plant for the best show here in New Orleans.
