Ipheion Mixed Bulbs

• Plant as early as you can in autumn so that the bulbs can establish a good root system before the weather becomes too cold.
• Plant in herbaceous borders, alpine gardens or pots, or scatter through grass to naturalise.
• Try growing in pots in an unheated greenhouse or conservatory to enjoy long-flowering displays.
• If planted in pots, be sure to water frequently and keep moist.

• Plant at twice the depth of the height of the bulb and four times their width apart, in moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil.
• Leave 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.
• Add a protective mulch in very cold conditions.

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
