Something to cheer me up

I fertilize my flower in the evening after i come back from work, i use very weak fertilizer solution hence i'll feed my flower 2 to 3 times a week.  I was on sick leave since yesterday due to severe back pain (it is definitely not related to lifting anything heavy  like huge flowerpot!) which means that I’m bedbound for 2 days. It is very upsetting when there is a hitch in your plan and because i cannot admire my beautiful flowers.  Thanks to my sis for watering my plant and took photos for me.
At 3 pm today a postman cheers me up by bringing me a 5 kg package.  This is a second package from my very good friend Peter from Holland. Its content are gladiolus, crocosmia, montbretia bulbs calla and dahlia tubers.                
                 
various bulbs and tubers
I'll will try to get more lily bulbs for 3rd package as 6 bulbs that he sent in the first package are sprouting
