When to buy and plant

Spring-flowering bulbs are sold from August for planting in autumn. Follow the variety’s planting window; tulips are generally planted later in autumn than many other spring bulbs.

Planting and growing

Plant in a suitable position with good drainage. Follow the pack’s planting depth and spacing, with the growing point facing upwards where identifiable.

Aftercare

Water containers when needed and allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering. Keep pots draining freely and follow the variety’s aftercare instructions.
