Choosing and Storing Bulbs - when choosing thright bulbs for your garden make sure that bulbs are not damaged and show no sign as storage can have an a huge effect on bulbs and in some bulbs such as the snowdrop, it can cause drying and therefore it may impair the flower production. There is such a wide variety of bulbs and plants out there for you to choose from various garden centres, just make sure that when that you plant them as soon as possible because storage can cause many problems unless however you have to wait for the right weather conditions that is suitable. If this is the case use a appropriate cool, dry and well ventilated place where no pests or bacteria can reach the bulbs |
When to Plant- The best two seasons in which to plant your garden bulbs is autumn and late winter. Giving them enough time to come up for the summer. Bulbs such as Tulips, Daffodils and hyacinths are best to plant in autumn as they are better to pull through winter frosts. Since most flower bulbs come from places where the winters are very cold, but summers are dry and hot, bulbs planted in warm, wet soil can rot or be effected by mildew |
