Spring/summer flowering bulbs to plant now?
« on: February 18, 2011, 11:59 »
Apart from freesias is there anything else I can plant now, particularly in window boxes for spring/summer flowering?

Thanks  :)

Not too late to start scillas, muscari and crocus. You'd get a flowering this year despite not having a winter freeze - if you can still get last year's bulbs anywhere.

You could also try small dahlias which benefit from indoor starting, begonias

You can plant Nerines in March for late summer flowers
