How to plant summer flowering bulbs
Planting is fairly simple and the instructions will be on the bulb packaging, but Antony has revealed his top bulb planting tips to ensure you get it right.
First things first, always plant your bulbs in well-drained soil and add some good quality compost and sharp sand for drainage in heavy soil.
The bulbs should be planted with the tip or pointed end facing upwards, Antony said.
He added: “Plant the bulbs at roughly three times the depth of the bulb and at least a bulb’s width apart.”
All you need to do is water and wait for the colour explosion when summertime comes, it’s that simple.
