Remember, when planting snowdrops, they should be planted about 5cm deep and 5-10cm apart. Daffodil bulbs should be planted about 10-15cm deep and 10cm apart in well-drained soil. Tulips can be planted at a depth of about 15-20cm deep.
Planting bulbs in September allows them to establish roots before winter and bloom beautifully in spring. However, if you miss September, October/November is the latest time to plant bulbs. The best spring flowers to plant in this period include tulips, daffodils (narcissi), hyacinths, crocuses, snowdrops (Galanthus), winter aconites, crown imperials, and grape hyacinths.
Crocuses are a welcome addition to flower bed ideas and are also one of the easiest spring bulbs to grow in pots. So, why wait? Start planning your spring garden today and enjoy the blooms next year!
