Spring bloomers

Especially after a dull winter, we're all looking forward to spring. How wonderful it is when the first spring bloomers reveal their fresh green blossoms!

Spring bloomers shine at you

At the end of winter, the garden usually looks dull and barren. But what you don't see yet is that new life is already hard at work underground, ready to shine brightly upon you! With spring bloomers, you have a wide range of options to ensure your garden is in full bloom in early spring. And althoughtulips,hyacinthsanddaffodilsare well-known favorites, it is nice to alternate these with some lesser-known varieties, such asfritillaries,peonies,alliumorlilies.

Flower bulbs for spring

Spring flower bulbs should be planted in the fall, from September through December, before the ground freezes. Check the enclosed information from The Blooming Company for tips on where and how deep to plant the bulbs. The flowering period is also indicated on the label. You can create a wild garden with a riot of color and variety, or you can plant various spring flowering bulbs together. When they finally emerge, they give us the ultimate feeling of spring, even in wintery weather!

Ultimate spring feeling

Once the sun starts shining more often and temperatures rise, every day can bring a surprise as you stroll through your garden: have you already spotted the first green shoots? While you've been cozying up by the fire these past few months, there's already plenty of activity underground. Spring flower bulbs were well on their way to the surface, ready to surprise you with the first greenery in your garden. Don't have a garden? No problem, spring bloomers also thrive in pots and planters. This way, everyone can enjoy the vibrant blooms of spring.

Color all year round

Have you ever wondered why spring bloomers only bloom in the spring and not year-round? This is because they form the lowest layer of the plant world; they only receive enough light to grow in spring. Later in the season, the foliage of larger plants and trees prevents sufficient sunlight from reaching the ground. With spring flower bulbs, it's perfectly possible to bring color to your garden almost year-round. Of course, the abundance of color in February is less than in the summer months, but the first greenery and flowers of the year bring extra joy; they herald the arrival of spring!
