How you will receive your bulbs:

Selected by our team of experts and sent from our nursery, you will receive your bulbs in a breathable mesh bag. This is to keep the bulbs together in a pack that is nice and airy – perfect to keep the bulbs healthy while in transit.

Can’t plant straight away?

Keep your bulbs in a cool, light, and dry place and preferably hanging on a hook so that air can get to the bulbs at all angles. Ideally, you should aim to plant your bulbs within a week of receiving them, but if this is not possible, store them in a cool, dark place until you are ready to plant them.

Planting tips and hints:

Planting in the ground: Plant in mid to late spring in well-drained soil in full sun. Plant bulbs shallowly, with the pointed ends upwards and the tops of the bulbs exposed. Space bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) apart. Water after planting.

Planting in containers: Plant in spring in pots filled with multi-purpose compost. Ensure that the top of the bulb is above the level of the compost. Water in and place the pot in a sunny position.

Feeding and aftercare: Feed with a high potash fertiliser like liquid tomato feed in summer. Deadhead faded flowers and allow the foliage to die back naturally. Avoid disturbing bulbs once established.

*Planting and flowering months below are subject to seasonal weather conditions.
