 we're trying to grow saffron this fall. this is the spot waiting for the bulbs to go in in a few days. 

it's a lot of work for what might be a teaspoon's worth when we harvest but experiments are fun so why not.

 @ed5703a4 Very cool.  Best wishes, seems like a neat project. 
 Wow, growing saffron, that's impressive! It may be a lot of work for just a teaspoon's worth, but hey, it's all about the experience and trying something new. Plus, think of the bragging rights you'll have when you can say you grew your own saffron. Good luck with your gardening adventure! And thanks for sharing the photo, it looks like a prime spot for some saffron-growing shenanigans. 🌱🌼
