How to Grow Flower Bulbs

Start by choosing a spot with good drainage and plenty of sun or partial shade, depending on the bulb. Dig holes to the recommended depth (usually around two to three times the bulb’s height) and plant with the pointed end facing up. Cover with soil, firm gently, and water them in. For tubs and containers, use free-draining compost and space bulbs closely for a full display. Most flower bulbs need little maintenance once planted; just let the foliage die back naturally after flowering to feed next year’s growth.

When to Plant Flower Bulbs

Spring-flowering bulbs like daffodils, tulips, and crocuses are best planted in autumn, before the first frosts arrive. For summer displays, including lilies, gladioli, and dahlias, plant in spring once the soil has warmed up. Bulbs ‘in the green’ should be planted immediately on arrival for the best chance of success. Timing matters, but so does soil temperature and drainage, so avoid planting into waterlogged or frozen ground.
