Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your early spring flower bulbs is straightforward, ensuring a beautiful display each year. The most critical step is proper fall planting. Choose a site that receives full sun, meaning at least six hours of direct sunlight per day. Good drainage is essential; bulbs will rot in soggy soil. If your soil is heavy clay, amend it with organic matter like compost or sand to improve drainage. Dig a hole approximately two to three times as deep as the bulb is tall, usually 6-8 inches for most top-size bulbs. Place the bulb with the pointed end facing upwards, then cover with soil and gently tamp down. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil around the bulbs.

Once planted, these fall planting bulbs require minimal care. They generally do not need fertilization in their first year if planted in good soil. In subsequent years, you can apply a balanced granular fertilizer designed for bulbs in early spring as new growth emerges. Avoid overwatering once established; natural rainfall is usually sufficient. After the blooms fade, allow the foliage to yellow and die back naturally before removing it. This process allows the bulb to store energy for the following year’s blooms. Protecting your bulbs from pests like squirrels and voles can be done using cages or repellent products. These mixed flower bulbs are hardy and will typically return reliably year after year, providing consistent colorful spring blooms.
