FAQs

When should I plant the bulbs?

Plant the bulbs in autumn for spring flowering.

How deep should I plant the bulbs?

Generally, plant the bulbs at a depth of about twice their height. Specific depths may vary; refer to the bulb packet for instructions.

What type of soil is best?

Well-drained soil is ideal. Amend heavy clay soils with compost or grit.

Do I need to water the bulbs after planting?

Yes, water the bulbs thoroughly after planting and continue to water regularly, especially during dry spells.

What should I do after the flowers have bloomed?

Allow the foliage to die back naturally. Do not cut the foliage until it has completely turned yellow or brown.

Can I plant these bulbs in containers?

Will these bulbs come back year after year?

Some varieties, such as daffodils, tulips, and crocus, can naturalize and return year after year, especially when planted in suitable conditions and allowed to die back naturally.

Troubleshooting

Bulbs are not flowering.

Ensure bulbs were planted at the correct depth. Check for proper drainage and sufficient sunlight. Ensure the foliage was allowed to die back naturally after flowering.

Poor growth or stunted plants.

Check for soil quality; amend heavy clay soil with compost. Ensure adequate watering but avoid waterlogging. Consider the amount of sunlight the location receives.
