What is the best time to plant?
Summer flowers like dahlias, gladioli, and calla lilies should be planted in spring (April to June), and always after the frost. This gives them ample time to establish themselves and develop strong roots, and they will bloom beautifully in summer. With the planting instructions from the farmers, you can discover the best month for planting each variety.
How deep should summer bulbs be planted?
As a general rule, summer bulbs should be planted two to three times the depth of the bulb itself. For most summer bulbs, this means they should be planted about 10-15 cm deep. Make sure to plant them with the point facing upwards.
Summer bloomers in pots or the ground?
There are a wide variety of summer bloomers, coming in various shapes, colors, and heights. They thrive in the open ground, but also do well in flower pots. When planting them in pots, make sure there are adequate drainage holes and use a well-draining potting mix. Place the pots in a sunny location and water regularly during the growing season.
