Spring Bulbs

I was in Lidl last week and saw these Spring Bulbs for sale , at 99p a packet I thought they were a bargain so I bought 6 packs , hopefully this will add some nice colour to the garden .
Already I have Primula , Primroses and Bellis in flower ! I think it must be down to the strange weather we are having the plants are all confused , I wonder whats going to happen when the spring arrives will they flower again ? The Dahlia's are still growing well in the garden , im going to grow more again next year , I dont know why I decided on a change this year Dahlia's never let me down , im going to stick to what I know grows well in my garden from now on it saves disappointment later .
The Greenhouse is all bubblewrapped ready for the winter and all my little cuttings for next year are growing well , Im hoping I can keep my standard Fuschia's alive for next year , I can only try . I brought in my hanging baskets because we have had frost some mornings but they are all producing new growth and flowers ! Im trimming them back and hoping im doing the right thing , never a dull moment eh ?
Happy Gardening !
