How to plant bulbs in BC
Planting bulbs is easy with the right guidance. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to get you started:
-
Choose the Right Bulbs: Depending on the season, select bulbs that will thrive in your area. For spring blooms, plant in the fall. For summer blooms, plant in the spring.
-
Prepare Your Soil: Well-drained soil is key to healthy bulb growth. Mix in compost or organic matter to enrich your soil and improve drainage.
-
Plant at the Right Depth: As a general rule, plant bulbs at a depth two to three times their height. Point the tip up and cover with soil.
-
Water After Planting: Give your bulbs a good soak after planting to help them settle in. Water regularly if the weather is dry.
-
Mulch for Protection: Mulch helps retain moisture and keeps the soil cool. It also protects your bulbs from extreme weather.
