Freesia Question
« on: April 29, 2013, 14:50 »
Hello,

I have freesia corms to plant but the pots I want them to go in have tulips in. Shall I:
Plant around the tulips?
Plant in modules to get them going?
Wait for the tulips to finish, take them out and put the freesia's in (think that might make it a bit late)

Or shall i stop being a tight ar*e and buy some more pots?!  ::)
 
My husband's a water sign, I'm an earth sign, together we make mud :-)

My gardening diary is here - go on, have a peek , you might be able to help me!

I think that I would go for the latter - it might be a bit if a squeeze if you try to plant the freesia's with the tulips and I am not sure that they would like being transferred from modules. You have just made me think of getting some corms - they have such a lovely perfume.
