Exceptions include some woodland bulbs like Fritillaria, Erythronium and Lily of the Valley, which are usually packed in plastic with a small amount of compost to reduce moisture loss. A few bulbs that are supplied dry, such as anemones and ranunculus, benefit from pre-soaking prior to planting. For almost all bulbs, size does matter! With the exception of anemones, ranunculus and freesias, the larger the bulb, the better the flower display. Excellent drainage is essential for all bulbs. Never plant bulbs in pots without drainage holes. Even ‘wood- land bulbs’ e.g. lily of the valley, that require more moisture still don’t like to be waterlogged. Most bulbs like to be planted in a sunny spot with at least half a day of sun. Many sun-loving bulbs that bloom in winter and spring can still do well under deciduous trees, so long as there is good winter light, as the bulbs go dormant by the time the trees come into leaf. Woodland bulbs enjoy a similar position, but need to be kept as cool as possible during the heat of summer. With a few exceptions like Ranunculus (claws down) and Anemones (point down), bulbs are generally planted with the ‘pointy’ end up. With some bulbs such as fritillaria, it can often be hard to tell which way is up. If in doubt, plant them on their sides and they will right themselves! In the garden, most bulbs are planted at 2-3 times the depth of the bulb. Exceptions include hyacinths, hippeastrums and nerines, which should be planted with the neck of the bulb above ground. Bearded iris rhizomes also need to be planted barely below soil level so as to get a good summer baking. When grown in pots, bulbs do not need to be planted as deep as in a garden bed, and can also be spaced much closer together, so that they are almost touching (but not touching the side of the pot).

Bulbs look so much better when planted in groups of at least 3. If planting a large number of bulbs to naturalise in a lawn, throw the bulbs onto the lawn one handful at a time, and plant them where they land. Unless you are planting in fresh, premium potting mix (which already contains fertiliser) a sprinkling of all-purpose fertiliser should be mixed into the soil, or applied as a top dressing to existing garden plantings and pots. e Growbetter All-Purpose fertiliser (blue bag) is ideal. As your bulbs emerge, keep an eye out for pests and diseases. Bulbs are generally problem-free, but overwa- tering can cause mildew and rot. Watch for slugs and snails. Tulips are very susceptible to aphids. Streaks and mottling on the leaves can be due to viruses spread by sap sucking insects, which is why it is so import- ant to treat aphid attacks quickly. Once planted in the ground, bulbs can usually survive on natural rainfall alone. Potted bulbs are likely to need supplementary watering, especially if planted in terracotta, although excessive watering will cause bulbs to rot. After blooming, remove spent flowers, but do not tie up or remove any leaves. Feed again with all-purpose fertiliser and continue to water. e foliage will look very messy during this time, but it is essential that leaves are allowed to die down entirely, as this returns nutrients to the bulb and ensures good flowering again next year. Most winter and spring flowering bulbs go dormant over summer, after their leaves have died down. Bulbs planted in the ground can be left in-situ, but do not like summer moisture during dormancy. If your garden bed has regular irrigation it is best to lift the bulbs, allow them to dry, and store in paper or a mesh bag/stocking in the coolest part of the house or shed (but not refrigerated). Bulbs grown in pots can be left in their pots and allowed to dry out under an eave or other position where they do not receive any supple- mentary irrigation.

Tulip types * Triumph tulips – by far the most commonly grown class of tulips, and generally earlier blooming than other types. E.g. Saigon, Mascara, Alibi, Strong Gold. e taller, larger flowered Darwin tulips e.g. Orange Balloon and Ad Rem are often shown in Triumph tulip section of bulb catalogues. Single late (aka French or Monet) tulips – tall, late flowering, classically shaped tulips that make superb * cut flowers e.g. Queen of the Night, Menton, Avignon, Clearwater * Double/ Peony tulips –short, strong stems and showy blooms e.g. Angelique, Belicia, Cartouche * Other tulip types include lily-flowered, parrot, fringed, viridflora and species. To chill, or not to chill? Our grower does not recommend refrigerating bulbs. Rather, he suggests waiting for cooler soil tempera- tures. In his words: “We do not refrigerate ANY of our tulip bulbs. Chilling does not determine if they will flower. Correct storage post harvest determines flowering. Most tulip varieties will already have the bloom inside prior to arriving to you. Chilling bulbs gives them a false winter, and forces them to flower over a short period. e bulbs are gener- ally then useless post blooming. Rather than chilling wait until temps are down to 15 degrees prior to planting.” Planting Cooler soil temperatures do not usually arrive in Melbourne until the end of April, and early May is the earliest our grower recommends for planting. However, by this time many of the most popular tulip variet- ies have sold out, so it’s still best to purchase your tulip bulbs when they first become available in March, then store them cool and dry until you are ready to plant - which can be as late as the end of June if you wish.

Add a sprinkling of lime if your soil is slightly acidic (pH6 or less). ey are suited to growing both in pots and in the ground. Species tulips will naturalise readily in garden beds. Will tulips re-bloom? Tulips are often treated as an annual in Australia, due to their reputation for failing to re-flower in subse- quent years. While some varieties return better than others, and your local climate is also a factor, correct storage is the best way to improve your chances of success next year. Lift the bulbs only after the foliage has completely died down, brush off any loose dirt, then dry and store them in a paper or mesh bag, in a cool, well ventilated room. Tulips need to be kept at a constant 20C to ensure the flower develops properly; exposure to long periods of high temperatures can kill the developing flower and result in leaves but no flowers the next season. daffodils ere are 13 different divisions of daffodils, and by choosing a mixture of species and varieties, you can have daffodils flowering in your garden for 5 months of the year - from June right through until October.

Here we found our first flowers, the extremely common Autumn Squill Prospero autumnale, the striped, hooded spathes of Friar’s Cowl Arisarum vulgare, and a number of Crocus mazziaricus. A few butterflies included Long-tailed Blue, Lang’s Short-tailed Blue, Eastern Bath White, Mallow Skipper and a Pigmy Skipper. We continued along the newly-completed coast road, before turning inland and climbing steeply into the mountains. We arrived in Kalavrita around 6pm and after settling in to our hotel, we enjoyed a delicious meal of home-cooked food at a nearby taverna. Day 2 Thursday 25th October We awoke to a sunny day with cloud over the mountains. Above Kalavrita, we explored an area of Kermes Oak scrub and open pasture, where we found more white Crocus mazziaricus and Crocus melantherus. Crocus melantherus, as its name suggests can be distinguished from other autumn-flowering species by its black anthers and purple feathering on the outer tepals. Cyclamen hederifolium was common under the shade of the trees.

  • Srgc Bulb Log Diary
    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- ISSN 2514-6114 Pictures and text © Ian Young BULB LOG 40................................4th October 2017 Rhododendron leaves Nothing is more characteristic of autumn than the leaves as they turn yellow, red and bright orange often with splashes of green still visible when you view them against the light as captured in the cover image of Hamamelis leaves. Photographed into the sun, exposed to retain the deep blue skies and using a small aperture which achieves the star effect of the sun. Shafts of light from the low sun passing through the trees and shrubs greatly adds to the drama of the season by picking out and highlighting colours creating striking effects of light and shade. Rhododendron leaves(above) also take on autumn colours as they come towards the end of their life then fall off – it is just that instead of lasting for a single growing season each Rhododendron leaf can last one or two years before it is shed so the shrub is never without leaves. There are some Rhododendrons that are deciduous, losing all their leaves every year, most of these are what we used to know as Azalea before they were sunk into Rhododendron. Crocus have a habit of getting everywhere in our garden as you may notice in this picture where a lone Crocus nudiflorus has made its way into the bonsai pot. The spotlight effect of a shaft of sunlight picks out Colchicum agrippinum and Crocus speciosus flowers growing through the fine foliage of Geranium robertianum with further colourful highlights provided by the leaves fallen from the Hamamelis, seen above and on the cover.

  • Southern Garden History Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times. This manual is the fruition of a joint undertaking between the Southern Garden History Society and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. In choosing lists to be included, I have been rather ruthless in expecting that the lists be specific to a place and a time.
