We often get asked at this time of year, “What kind of bulbs can I plant in Spring?” Well, here’s a selection to get you started…
And you can find all of these here at Shannons. Once you’ve bought your bulbs, here are some tips as to when and how to plant them:
Begin planting your spring flowering bulbs, corms and tubers between October and December, before the coldest winter weather sets in. You can plant them in containers or straight into borders, but as a rule of thumb, most bulbs should be planted at 3 times their depth.
We’re always happy to give planting advice when asked and so, happy planting!
If you’re looking for a pot for your plant, whether it’s an outdoor variety or one that is kept indoors, here at Shannons we have a great selection of pots in stock throughout the year from a range of leading suppliers.
For indoor plants, there’s the Elho range which comes in both plastic and china
And for outdoor plants, we have the popular terracotta pots and we also stock the frost-proof Yorkshire pots
Come along to the garden centre and take a look.
We’re here to help with a bit of advice when buying a new houseplant.
So, have a read of these tips…
Think about the room conditions where the houseplant will live – warm? cold?
Consider if you have pets as some leaves can be mildly toxic to them
Select plants for the lighting conditions in your home
Choose decorative plant containers to enhance the look of the houseplant
We look forward to seeing you here at Shannons soon to buy your new houseplant.
