Spring Flowering bulbs at Suttons

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Spring bulbs at Suttons Seeds will give you the inspiration you need to go out and plant some spring colour! Order your bulbs now and they’ll soon be with you ready to be planted out into your garden. Use spring bulbs in tubs or flower beds or even naturalise them in the lawn. If you plant them in the lawn remember to let them flower and die back before you mow the grass. Perfect for under trees where they can spread and increase in number each years.
Spring bulbs ensure you get winter colour after the hard weather and they’re perfect for brightening up a shady garden too! There’s nothing that shows you spring is on the way like snowdrops, and when the daffodils show their golden heads you know the winter is nearly over!
Ensure you garden has plenty of spring colour by planting lots of bulbs. They also have some really good value spring bulb multi-packs if you want to transform a large area of your garden into a spring bulb paradise!
Generally the bulbs need to be planted as deeps as they are tall – but check the planting instructions for exact details. A bulb planter tool can also be useful or you can use a spade and dig up the border, remove the earth to the right depth and then scatter a handful of bulbs on and right them up the right way before covering up again.
