Spring Bulb Mix Purplish – Purple, Lilac and Violet Flowers (Bag of 15 Bulbs)

This purplish spring bulb mix gives you a layered display of deep purple, lilac and violet flowers. You receive 15 dry bulbs in a bag, ready to plant. They are not growing plants. The photos show the flowers in bloom.

The bulbs are chosen to suit one another, so the colours work together and the flowers come at different heights as the season moves on. It is an easy way to get a cool-toned, colour-coordinated planting without picking and buying each variety separately, and it suits beginners and experienced gardeners alike.

Plant the bulbs in autumn in well-drained, fertile soil in full sun or partial shade. They are hardy in the UK and look good in borders and raised beds. They also grow well in pots and containers, as long as the pots have drainage holes. Plant with the pointed end upwards, and group the bulbs in odd numbers for a natural effect.

Once the flowers fade, leave the foliage to die back naturally, because this feeds the bulb for next season. The exact varieties in the mix may change from season to season to keep the quality and colour harmony.

Bulbs are harmful if eaten. Keep away from children and pets.
