How to keep Globemasters big?

Posted: Yesterday at 20:19

I leave my flowers and stalks on for some time to continue the show, altho' you can take off the head and most of the stalk when colour is gone and seeds forming.  Leave a couple of inches to mark the position of the bulb below, in case you forget where it is. You might plant something on top!!!

I usually use Tomorite for most things, especially as it is a tiny bit late now.It works quickly as it is available instantly. But usual blood, fish, etc would do nicelyas well, especially for next year. Strangely some of mine have done well this year and others less well. So somethging else may be happening too. But feed is essential, apply in spring as growth starts and the feed will be available at the right time.

Like all bulbs they benefit from some feed, and this is best applied as the bulbs take up the goodness in the leaves. So watch for the leaves to start tyo die off, which has probably alrady happened, and start feeding. Don't delay.

Local gnomes go around Woodgreen at night planting up your wheelbarrows so that you can't use them again!

Thanks again, but there is now an embargo on any more thanking of those thanking those who thanked in the first place. Cake will be confiscated.
