Planting Instructions:
The perfect solution to planting bulbs with the minimum of fuss and disturbance to other plants in your borders.
Simply fill the bulb basket with soil or compost and evenly space the bulbs to the recommended planting distance, gently pushing the bulbs in to the soil to just cover the base.
Dig a hole in your border or in your container to the correct depth, place the basket then replace the soil. Your bulbs will now send their roots through the basket base and grow as normal. After flowering just lift the baskets and store until all the green growth has died back, keep moist and feed to help next year’s flowering.
Ideal for drying and storing your bulbs over winter, especially frost-tender varieties (just remember to keep the whole basket in a frost-free place).
Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
