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 Oriental Lilies, which require more depth. Next, add another layer of soil and then place medium-sized bulbs, like Brodiaea, Allium and Ranunculus, on top. Finally, finish with a layer of smaller bulbs, such as oxalis, allium, which can thrive in shallower soil. This method not only optimizes the use of vertical space but also ensures that the bulbs bloom at different times throughout the summer, 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 summer bulbs flourish beautifully. Collection comprises of the following varieties:11 x Allium moly - A vigorous little allium bearing dense clusters of star-shaped, golden yellow flowers from late spring.
