First Spring Tulip and Crocus Mix

Planting Advice for your bulbs:

• Plant bulbs at twice the depth of the height of the bulb and four times their width apart, e.g. 5cm tall bulbs need to be planted 10cm below the surface of the ground and 20cm apart.
• Please check the bag for any additional planting instructions.
• They are fine to plant even if a little green growth is showing; they will just need a good watering when you plant them, and thereafter only when the soil is dry.
• Leave them in the ground once they die back – they will come back bigger and better each year.
• While all the energy that a bulb needs in order to grow is stored in the bulb itself, they will do better if you feed them when in active green growth.
• Plant in herbaceous borders, in pots, or leave in the ground to naturalise. If planted in pots, be sure to water frequently and keep moist.

 Aftercare Advice for your bulb collection:

• Spring-flowering bulbs should be planted in the autumn for displays next season. Some bulbs such as tulips can be planted as late as November, but it is best to get your bulbs in the ground as early in autumn as possible so that they can establish a good root system before the weather becomes too cold.
• Plant in herbaceous borders, in pots, or leave in the ground to naturalise.
• Water frequently and if in pots, ensure that the compost doesn't dry out.
