Summer flowering bulbs should be planted in spring, with the pointed end facing upwards, at a depth of approximately 3 times their height. When planting summer flowering bulbs choose a sunny position in moist, free draining soil.
Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering before removing it. This will help to feed the bulb and ensure another cheery display next spring. Lift bulbs in autumn when the foliage has died back. Carefully clean and label them before storing in a dry, frost free place. Summer bulbs can be replanted in spring for another fantastic display.
We will do our best to ship your plants or bulbs to you at the ideal time for planting as stated against each product. We recommend that you prepare your soil, planting beds or patio containers ahead of time so you are ready to plant out, or pot on, just as soon as your order arrives. You will find the name of the variety printed on the top line of the address label on your package. Please ensure that you open the packaging immediately and carefully read through the instruction leaflet provided. For greatest success, please pot on or plant out as soon as possible, following the cultural instructions enclosed with your order.

  1. Summer Bulb collection

    By I Catchpole 01-09-2011

    Having cleared 80+ mum's shed I wanted something to fill the space really quick. These started to show within a fortnight and have rekindled mum's excitement with gardening. She goes out first thing everyday to see what's come out now and has even got her garden chairs out again. Five+ months of daily pleasure...now what do you have for winter and spring?
