As the layers bloom at different times, you'll enjoy a continuous show of colour and texture throughout the Spring months, transforming your garden into a vibrant oasis that delights the senses. Lasagne planting is a delightful method for cultivating Spring bulbs that allows gardeners to maximise their space and create a stunning display of flowers. This technique involves layering bulbs in a deep container or garden bed, similar to the way one would layer ingredients in a lasagne. Start by placing a layer of soil at the bottom, followed by the largest bulbs, like our Daffodils, which require more depth. Next, add another layer of soil and then place medium-sized bulbs, like Tulips, and Hyacinth on top. Finally, finish with a layer of smaller bulbs, such as crocus and ipheion, which can thrive in shallower soil. This method not only optimises the use of vertical space but also ensures that the bulbs bloom at different times throughout the Spring, providing a continuous and vibrant display. Remember to water the layers thoroughly after planting and to choose a location that receives plenty of sunlight, as this will help your spring bulbs flourish beautifully. Collection comprises of the following varieties:Ipheion Mix (20 Bulbs) - Clumps of bright green foliage emerge in the autumn followed by an abundance of colourful star-shaped flowers in spring.
