What is a more welcome sign of spring that seeing the bright colors of tulips?
When people think of spring blooming bulbs they instantly think of tulips. There are others that bloom in spring as well. Crocus, daffodils and hyacinths are other popular spring bulbs and we have more! Spring bulbs add color to the garden before any perennials are ready to bloom. Every garden should have some!!
Spring bulbs have three different periods of bloom: early (March in Michigan), Mid-season (mid March-mid April) and Late season (May or early June in Michigan).
We have many varieties to choose from. The ideal time to plant spring bulbs is in October. Bulbs also prefer well drained soil so make sure to amend heavy clay soils. Remember to use Espoma Bulb Tone when you plant for great blooming results!
