Overview
If you want a spring-flowering display to go on as long as possible, plant separate layers of different varieties of bulbs in one pot. All you need to create a display which flowers in succession is a large pot and a variety of bulbs that will flower at different times.
Do it:
September - October
At its best:
March - April
Takes just:
45 minutes
How to do it
-
Fill the base of the pot with compost and plant a layer of large-flowered daffodils on top. Cover with a little compost. -
Next plant a layer of tulips. Spread the bulbs out generously across the surface and cover with more compost. -
Finally, plant a layer of dwarf bulbs, such as crocus or iris. Cover with compost and water in.
"Daffodils benefit from early planting (in September) but tulips are best left to a November planting."
