Bloom Time Late
Bloom times are relative within the spring bulb season, which varies from place to place and year to year. They are intended to help you plan a sequence of bloom from Very Early season to Very Late season. About two weeks separate Early from Mid and Mid from Late. The start and duration of bloom is heavily dependent on the weather. Warm temperatures speed up growth and flowering; cold temperatures slow them down.

Planting Instructions

Adaptable bulbs that grow in full sun or shade (as long as it’s not too dense) and in any well-drained soil that does not dry out completely in summer. In the wild, they grow on the woodland floor, forming dense colonies in the high shade of deciduous trees. The same effect can be had in the landscape if the seeds are allowed to ripen and fall at their parents’ feet.

Depth of Planting Hole 4 inches
Spacing 4 inches apart
