Perfect for Pots Spring Collection
Botanical Names: Hyacinthus orientalis, Narcissus pseudonarcissus and Tulipa hybrida
Position: Full sun to part shade. A bright position encourages strong growth and abundant flowering.
Climate: Suitable for cool, temperate and Mediterranean climates. Frost tolerant. In mild winter regions, hyacinths and tulips benefit from pre-chilling before planting.
Planting Time: Autumn to early winter.
Watering: Water thoroughly after planting and keep potting mix evenly moist while plants are actively growing and flowering. Ensure containers drain freely and reduce watering as foliage dies back.
Flowering Time: Late winter to spring.
Fertilising: Apply a balanced fertiliser or bulb food at planting time. A light application after flowering helps replenish bulbs for future growth.
Soil: Use a premium, free-draining potting mix enriched with organic matter. Choose containers with adequate drainage to prevent bulb rot.
Pests: Protect emerging shoots and flower buds from snails and slugs. Avoid waterlogged potting mix to reduce the risk of fungal diseases and bulb rot.
Growing Tips: Plant bulbs at the recommended depth for each variety, allowing enough space for roots and growth. Position pots in a sunny spot during active growth and flowering. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally before removing it, helping bulbs store energy for the following season.
