Planting

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Plant your bulbs as soon as they arrive, each one into a 9cm pot filled with a mixture of 50% multipurpose compost and 50% loam based potting compost, such as John Innes No 2. When planting, make sure that the roots are spread out and only the bottom half of the bulbs are below the compost level. The top half of the bulb must remain above it. Wait until the roots fill the pot before planting out into the garden, at the same level.

 

Flowering Season

From Early Autumn TO Late Autumn

Nerine bowdenii is a brilliant pink, autumn flowering bulb, which will flower for years once they have settled in.
