Gardening Bulbs – Proven Planting Methods Of The Flower Bulbs That Will Blossom In Spring
narcissus bulbs

If you want bulb flowers to blossom in spring, you need to plant gardening bulbs in September or October, and for sure before first light morning or night frost. This rule is correct for Northern hemisphere and Southern hemisphere where there are such things like night or light morning frost.

During selection of the bulbs for your garden pay attention on the size of bulbs. In most cases follow this rule: the bigger the bulb the better blossom! If you are buying bulb tuber – its size is defined by its diameter, not its height.

Most bulbs must be in a dormancy condition, but some of them, like Crocosmia, are an exception to the rule – its bulbs can be sold with leaves. Gardening bulbs must be free from damage with clean surface. Stem of the bulb must be solid and without signs of roots and rottenness. If bulb is soft and its stem is soft as well, if you can see sprouts, and surface of the bulb is shrunken – it means, that this bulb is low quality and you will not grow good plant from it.

Each bulb plant blooms in certain period of time and if you pay attention to this you will get pleasure of blossoming bulb flowers from the very first moments of the spring.

Galanthus is the first bulb flower that starts blooming. Crocus, Narcissus, Chinodoxa and the early Tulips will follow after them. Muscari, Tulips, Fritillaria start blooming in April and May. Allium usually flowers from the middle of May and till end of July.
If you choose you bulb flowers correct you may admire the scenery of the blossoming garden for several months from the very end of winter and till middle of the summer.

You need to make soil light thoroughly before the planting, and if in need – add some compost. Then, using bulb planter, dig the hole and put bigger flower bulb in it (in order to set it straight); it is possible to sow smaller bulbs.

There is a rule, regarding to planting depth: gardening bulb must be planted in a depth, twice the size its height. Flowers that have bigger bulbs, like Narcissus, Tulip and Hyacinthus, planting depth must be from 15 to 20 centimeters. For flowers with smaller size bulbs, like Galanthus or Crocus, planting depth must be about 5 -10 centimeters.

You need to make bigger distance between bulbs that bigger the size, than for smaller bulbs. Big should be planted in a distance of 12 centimeters from each other and the smaller bulbs about 5 7 centimeters from one another.

Sandy soil lets water through very well and from the other side clay soil stays wet for very long time. Gardening bulbs do not like when they are kept in wet conditions, so if such a case, you need to think about good flow-out of the water.
It is possible to make clay soil more airy and light by adding sand or compost there. You may add small size gravel into the hole before putting a bulb there.

After planting bulbs, you need to water them straight away this will make growing roots faster. The faster roots will appear the stronger and more stable will be bulb before cold and wet season and winter time.

When autumn rains will start you need to stop watering your garden, of course. If there is strong frost and there is no snow cover, you have to cover planted gardening bulbs by leaves, fir branches or straw.

Daffodil Bulbs

For Spring Color, Plant Bulbs in the Fall
daffodil bulbs

Remember back to the spring, when the days were just starting to get warm. Do you remember seeing all the colorful tulips and daffodils blooming in gardens and parks everywhere? Did you think to yourself, I want some of those in my yard? Well if you want gorgeous flowers in the spring you better plant some bulbs in the fall!

Buy quality bulbs. This cannot be stressed enough. Many of the bulbs you buy at big box stores or discount centers are lower quality than those you buy at a nursery or through a reputable mail order company. You want a good size, firm bulb. The bulb contains everything that it needs to produce a beautiful flower next spring. When you think of it that way don’t you want the best bulb so you have the best flowers?

Get a variety of bulbs not just one kind. For the longest bloom times, get bulbs that bloom in early springs, some for mid spring and a few for late spring. To give you an idea of bloom times, early bloomers sometimes push up through the snow and start blooming in February. The late spring ones will blossom about the same time you are getting ready to put annuals in the ground. For early blossoms crocus, daffodil and some tulips are good. Hyacinths and dwarf iris are good for mid spring, with late blooming tulips being a perfect choice for late spring blossoms.

Planting bulbs is a very easy process. Using your shovel or trowel, dig a hole that is about 3 times as deep as the bulb is wide. Or for easy reference, the hole should be about eight inches deep for tulips, hyacinths and daffodils, and 5 inches deep for crocus and dwarf iris. Make sure you have some loose soil in the bottom of the hole. Then sprinkle a tablespoon of bulb fertilizer or bone meal into the hole. Place the bulb in, with the pointed end up. Cover with the soil and you are done. Don’t worry if you can’t tell the top from the bottom on the bulbs. They grow even if you planted them upside down!

If you are planting a large area, dig up the whole area with your shovel, add fertilizer then place all the bulbs in at once, spacing them 10 t0 12 inches apart. Cover the bulbs with dirt and let them be. Planting bulbs this way works great if you want a natural planting area of daffodils or tulips.

Planting bulbs for spring color is almost effortless. The hardest thing you will do is decide what bulbs you want to plant!

Answer by M M T
When we buy spring bulbs, we usually buy from Breck’s. We have always had great results from their bulbs. Clean, hardy, just plain nice bulbs and not overly expensive.

And believe it or not, I have gotten some wonderful bulbs from Ebay. Just be sure to pick a seller what is very well rated and has been selling on Ebay for at least a year.
