I wanted all kinds: tall ones and ground covers, yellow flowers and pink flowers, shady and sun-loving. Give me all the flowers! I found out very quick that our […]

Fall is an exciting time in the garden. Yes, the fall season features many endings when it comes to the growing season, but it is also filled with new beginnings and exciting plans for next year’s blooms. If you’ve ever admired the unique early bloomers of spring and wished you had them to look forward to after a long cold winter, you can make it happen in your own garden by planting fall bulbs. Check out our list of bulbs to plant in fall that will reward you with their intriguing textures and showy blooms each spring. Allium Add a bit of magic to your garden beds by planting allium bulbs. Allium comes in varying heights from five-inch bloomers to prominent five-foot wonders. They produce tantalizing globes of flowers that sway in the breeze on slender stems. Hardy in USDA zones 5-8, they enjoy full sun exposure and produce blooms of pink, yellow, purple, and white. Crocus Crocuses tend to be the first sign of the arrival of spring, as they are the first flowers to peek out of the ground as winter comes to a close. These low-growing perennials form clusters of petite blooms in white, yellow, orange, pink, and violet. Crocus bulbs and easy to plant and crocuses are members of the iris family and grow to a height of about 5-6 inches in USDA Grow Zones 3-8. Daffodils Nothing adds more cheerfulness to garden beds than clusters of daffodils. They are easy to grow and add delightful, sunshiny, yellow hues to gardens year after year. Daffodil bulbs are readily available at garden centers and are very reasonably priced for the show that they display in gardens in USDA Grow Zones 4-11. They grow to heights of 12-14 inches and come in different variations of whites and yellows and even less commonly seen pink varieties. Dutch Irises Mix up the variety of your early spring blooming garden by planting some bunches of dutch irises. Grow them in full sun or partial shade in USDA Grow Zones 5-9. Irises can add visual intrigue to any fall garden landscape with muted colors of the rainbow or vibrant standouts like the ‘Royal Yellow’ or ‘Sapphire Beauty.’ Actually, the name iris is derived from the Greek word meaning rainbow, which adequately describes that wide range of color varieties of this early spring bloomer. Grape Hyacinths Grape hyacinths are delicate and petite bloomers that add a lovely texture and splash of color in the garden. They look like clusters of tiny blueish-purple bells and have a sweet scent. They look lovely when paired with, the also petite, lily of the valley. Hyacinths Bring the luxurious scent and bright, cheerful blooms of hyacinth into your garden to greet you each spring. Choose from bulb varieties that flourish into yellow, white, pink, red, peach, blue, and purple spikes. Hardy in USDA Grow Zones 4-8, these bulbs are easy to grow in containers, in-ground, or transplanted from pot to ground. Hyacinths look fabulous when planted in clusters and paired with daffodils and tulips. Tulips Often referred to as the jewel of the garden, the tulip flower puts on quite a show each spring. Consider planting several varieties of tulips that have different bloom times and color variation, so you can continually enjoy this spring beauty. Tulips come in a seemingly endless variety of vibrant colors, and their petals grow into a lovely cup-like shape with decorative stamens. They look lovely when paired with daffodils and hyacinths.

Lily of the Valley Enjoy the fresh, clean look and scent of lily of the valley. These petite bulbs produce lovely variegated leaves and dainty white bells that hang from their stems. They grow best in shady garden spots and are perfect accents for fairy gardens. Lilies Plant lily bulbs this fall for large, showy, spring blooms. These perennial delights add striking beauty and sophistication to the garden and produce blooms in both spring and midsummer. Their striated and colorful, trumpet-shaped flowers stand tall for all to see, and they come in a vast array of bright and beautiful hues. Lilies emit a scent that wafts through the air like no other flower in the garden, and the plant needs very little care as long as they have full sun. Snowdrops Snowdrops not only resemble small drops of snow, but they also make such early spring arrivals that they peek their blooms up when snow is still on the ground in some areas. These quaint little beauties make their best showings when bulbs are planted in clumps or on the borders of garden beds. Tips on How to Plant Fall Bulbs All of these bulbs to plant in fall should be planted in late fall, a couple of weeks prior to a hard freeze. Select your desired bulbs while taking the level of sun exposure and proper drainage in your garden into advisement. Dig holes to the recommended depth and spacing as recommended for the variety. Place bulbs sprout side up in the hole. You can usually determine the sprout end from the root end by its shape. The sprout end usually has a bit of a peak, while the root side is usually a bit flatterer where previous roots have been cut off. Cover the bulbs gently with soil so as not to overturn them and pat down to secure the soil in place. By spring, you will be excited to see them sprouting up from the soil and greeting you with their vibrant blooms. It is important to note that once your bulbs have finished blooming, leave the leaves and stems to wither back on their own full before trimming them back. This allows the energy to push back into the bulb to be stored for next year’s showstopping blooms. Share The Garden Love

If you’re not growing ranunculus flowers (Tecolote ranunculus) in your garden, you might consider giving it a go. These gorgeous bloomers have a rose-like appearance with layers of thin petals, straight stems, and frilly foliage. And the color range! Anywhere from white, cream and pale yellow to golden yellow, apricot, orange, red, and burgundy. Most gardeners, regardless of zone, can grow ranunculus — you simply have to understand what they like in order to be their blooming best. Growing Requirements For Ranunculus Flowers Light: Full sun Temperature: 55° (think Southern California) Water: Light water at planting, then medium water when actively growing Soil: Light and well-drained USDA Hardiness Zones: Zones 4-7 (annuals), Zones 8-10 (perennials) Kellogg Garden Organics All Natural Garden Soil Learn More Product Locator by Locally **Product not available in AZ, CA, HI, NV, UT. For a comparable product in these states click here. How to Plant Ranunculus Bulbs Planting ranunculus couldn’t be any easier. They come as bulbs (or corms) and are typically mail-ordered or picked up at a garden center — look for large, healthy-looking bulbs that will grow and support large, healthy plants with lots of blooms. Plant ranunculus bulbs 4” apart and about 2” deep with the “claw” side down in a location receiving full sun. Cover with soil and lightly water in. Now, leave it alone until you see signs of leaves sprouting — that’s right, no water! Then moderately water during active growth and blooming. (I told you this was easy, didn’t I?) When blooms have finished, let the foliage yellow and wither before cutting back. And during this time, don’t water at all, as that could rot your bulbs. Planting time? That depends upon where you live. If you’re in Zones 8-10, plant in the fall for spring blooms. Gardeners in Zones 4-7, plant in the spring for late summer bloom, and plan on treating them as annuals. Yes, I know you don’t want to plant annual bulbs — but come on, with flowers as gorgeous as these are (and which are so easy to plant), don’t you think it’s worth it? How to Use Ranunculus Flowers Because of their straight stems and medium-sized growth, ranunculus flowers are ideal for container plantings, borders, cutting gardens, and mixed perennial gardens. Want to use them in a cut flower arrangement? Here are some quick tips: 1. Cut the stems when buds are showing but aren’t yet open. 2. Remove the leaves from the lower part of the stem. 3. Re-cut the bottoms of the stems after you go inside, and place them in a vase of water immediately. 4. Change water every other day to enjoy beautiful cut ranunculus flowers for up to 10 days.

Cornus mas at Westonbirt Cornus officinalis at Westonbirt I have always liked the small, rather untidily bushy tree that is Cornus mas. In late winter it bears its clusters of small yellow flowers in a light shimmer across the tree. It is a European species and I've seen it in light woodland on the limestone hills near Prague, flowering in late March: it's always pretty, but not dramatic. It's English name is Cornelian Cherry, on account of the glossy red fruits borne in early autumn. They are rather acidic, but can be used for making jam if you're inclined to waste sugar. There are numerous cultivars, mostly selected for either their flowering or fruiting characteristics (it is is a valued crop in Russia). 'Golden Glory' is a commonly grown clone that we also have at Colesbourne: it is free-flowering, with a more upright branching habit. My favourite is 'Variegata', with very cleanly white-edged leaves and often a heavy crop of fruits. It's only problem is that it's rather slow-growing. Cornus mas 'Variegata' Cornus mas has two close relatives in the genus, the very similar-looking C. officinalis from Japan and Korea, and the more distinct Sino-Himalayan C. chinensis. Last week, going round Westonbirt Arboretum with Hugh Angus (Head of Tree Collections) and Tony Aiello (Curator of the Morris Arboretum, Philadelphia), we saw the two species growing in close proximity (picture above) and I confessed I'd never looked into how they differed. Tony gave us a tutorial in the rather minor differences that separate them - a duller bark in C. mas, small distinctions in flower size and most telling, patches of hairs in the vein axils of the underside of the leaves in C. officinalis, visible even on last year's fallen leaves. Cornus officinalis 'Kintoki' at The Patch 'Kintoki' As usually seen in cultivation, there is little to choose between the two species, but there is an exceptional clone of C. occidentalis in (limited) circulation, with really abundant, large clusters of flowers that really do make the others look rather pointless. This clone, 'Kintoki', was selected by Barry Yinger in a Japanese market and introduced by him to the United States (according to Cappiello & Shadow, Dogwoods, 2005). I've only ever seen one plant of it in the UK, growing in Margaret Owen's garden, The Patch, in Shropshire. It was noteworthy when a young plant several years ago, but now, as a young tree, it is spectacular, laden with flowers that even on a very dull day contributed a rich mass of colour to the garden. Cappiello & Shadow say its bark is 'as good or better than some Prunus species' so this may be another feature to look for as the tree ages, but it is not yet apparent on Margaret's specimen. Cornus officinalis 'Kintoki' - the inflorescences have more flowers than normal in the species. Cornus chinensis is the third member of the trio. I have never seen it in flower, but it gains rave reviews from those more fortunate. Frank Kingdon Ward found it near Rima in southern Tibet in 1950, writing of the effect of the trees in full flower, a mass of yellow in the forest, and his puzzlement in working out what it was (Pilgrimage for Plants, 1960). It became his principal target for that collecting season, but his plans were rudely shattered by a massive earthquake, 8.6 on the Richter scale epicentred near Rima. After that the party had two priorities, survival amid the devastation and aftershocks, and to collect seed of Cornus chinensis. Both were successful, but this stock of C. chinensis proved to be tender in British gardens. More recently collected material from China is tougher and the species is now growing well in southern England at least. The foliage is outstandingly attractive,with a long drip-tip.

WELCOME!! NOTE: DUE TO STATE REGULATIONS, WE DO NOT SHIP TO CALIFORNIA (CA) and HAWAII (HI) STATE, ANY ORDER WITH SHIPPING ADDRESS OF CA or HI WILL BE CANCELED. This list is for 9 bulbs of purple Oxalis plants bulbs. You will get 9 living baby corms bulbs cluster of Oxalis Triangularis Bulbs False Shamrock Purple Shamrock, Purple Heart Shaped. (NOTE: You will not get a full plant) that can grow quickly. Buy as many as you wish and they will be combined in one package. Oxalis 'Triangularis' does best in rich, well-drained soil, plenty of sunshine and partial shade. If you are in hardiness zones 6-10, you can enjoy your Purple Shamrock outside; they are great a great choice for beds/borders. Although it seems to grow quite robust in a bright location indoors, the window reduces some of the sun’s rays which can burn the lovely leaves. Use a lightweight potting mix that drains well. During the growing seasons of spring through summer, water when the top inch of soil feels dry. During the dormant season of fall and winter, water about every two to three weeks. Store bulbs in a cool dry spot with good air circulation and low humidity. Most bulbs can tolerate temperatures between 38 and 70 F. You will want to protect them from heat, frost and strong sunlight. Ideally, you should plant your bulbs right away for best results. Healthy bulbs should be firm to the touch. Bulbs hate "wet feet." Avoid planting bulbs in areas with poor drainage or standing water. Planting when the soil temperature is too warm is the primary cause of stunted blooms. Road salt and de-icing compounds are harmful to bulbs. You should steer clear of areas where snow accumulates. Crop rotation is key. Avoid planting the same type of bulb in the same spot year after year. Avoid planting too shallow. Plant your Oxalis bulbs 1 -1.5 inches deep. They may vary in size but all will grow quickly and sprout leaves shortly after planting (about 1-2 weeks). BEFORE BUYING, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND LOOK EVERY PICTURE. THANKS FOR LOOKING 🪴 I ship bare roots. Not pot, not soil. Shipping and handling time for processing order of 2 to 6 days. ***NOTE: Please, verify weather conditions prior to make any order. I'm not responsible for weather conditions during transportation and delivery time***.
