About Summer Sowing Flower Bulbs

Are you looking for an outdoor project this summer? Bring out your gardening tools and spend some time under the sun. You can do that while cultivating your beautiful garden with Summer Sowing Flower Bulbs.

Bulbs are commonly associated with spring colour in the landscape. But there are other bulbs that provide summer interest as well. The majority of summer flower and foliage bulbs are tropical in nature. They require warmer temperatures to thrive.

Bulbs that bloom in the summer can be used in beds, borders, pots, and hanging baskets. True bulbs, corms, rhizomes, and tubers are among the many varieties.

Summer Sowing Flower Bulbs become some of the biggest and most exotic-looking blooms. Nurserylive’s bulbs are easy to grow and bloom into stunningly vivid flowers. These flowers are tender perennials that grow year after year. Hence leaving your garden overflowing with colour well past the warm months.

These Summer Sowing Flower Bulbs do not require a lot of space to flourish. Grow them in your backyard or even in pots and containers in your balcony or by your windowsill.

If you live in colder regions, you can start early by planting your bulb indoors in a warmer environment. You can then move it outdoors once it gets warmer. You can choose to replant it or simply relocate the entire pot. Perfect for adding a splash of colour, the Summer Sowing Flower Bulbs bring a charm to the green foliage in small bursts.

These summer beauties take very little upkeep. They can be nestled into existing garden beds if planted in the spring. Planting spring bulbs ensure a lush, fragrant, and colourful garden throughout the summer.

Some of the most sought-after flowers in Nurserylive’s collection are Gladiolas, Gloriosa, Calla lily, Rain lily, Freesia, Oriental Lily, Hyacinth and many others. Combine a few of these in complementary colours for a bright and colourful setup.

Summer Flower Bulbs

Summer is the season of beautiful and vibrant flowers. Planting summer flower bulbs is a great way to add color and fragrance to your garden. Some popular summer flower bulbs include dahlias, gladiolus, and lilies.

Sowing Bulbs

Sowing bulbs is a great way to ensure a beautiful garden year after year. By planting bulbs in the summer, you can ensure that your garden will be full of beautiful blooms come springtime. Some popular bulbs to sow in the summer include tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths.

Flower Bulbs for Hot Climates

If you live in a hot climate, you may think that you can't grow beautiful flowers. However, there are many flower bulbs that thrive in hot weather. Some popular flower bulbs for hot climates include cannas, caladiums, and amaryllis.

Bulb Combinations

Planting different types of bulbs together can create a stunning and unique garden. Some popular bulb combinations include daffodils and tulips, lilies and gladiolus, and crocus and hyacinths.

Summer Bulbs for Containers

If you don't have a lot of space for a garden, planting bulbs in containers is a great option. Some popular summer bulbs for containers include begonias, calla lilies, and gladiolus.

Bulbs for Cut Flowers

If you love to bring fresh flowers into your home, planting bulbs that make great cut flowers is a must. Some popular bulbs for cut flowers include dahlias, gladiolus, and lilies.

Planting Depth for Bulbs

Planting bulbs at the right depth is important for their success. Generally, bulbs should be planted two to three times their height deep. For example, a bulb that is two inches tall should be planted four to six inches deep.

Bulb Fertilization

Fertilizing bulbs can help them grow bigger and stronger. Use a fertilizer that is high in phosphorus, which promotes root growth. Be sure to follow the instructions on the package for best results.

Bulb Pests and Diseases

Unfortunately, bulbs can be susceptible to pests and diseases. Keeping your garden clean and removing dead foliage can help prevent issues. If you do notice signs of pests or disease, treat them promptly with an appropriate solution.

Summer Bulbs for Shade

If you have a shady garden, there are still plenty of bulbs that will thrive. Some popular summer bulbs for shade include begonias, caladiums, and hostas.

Bulb Mulching

Mulching around your bulbs can help retain moisture and protect them from extreme temperatures. Use a layer of organic material, such as shredded leaves or straw, to create a protective barrier.

Bulb Division

Over time, bulbs can become overcrowded and may need to be divided. This is typically done in the fall after the foliage has died back. Gently dig up the bulbs and separate them, then replant them in a new location.

Summer Bulbs for Pollinators

Planting bulbs that attract pollinators can help support local ecosystems. Some popular summer bulbs for pollinators include alliums, crocosmias, and fritillarias.

Bulb Watering

Bulbs need consistent moisture to thrive. Water them deeply once a week, or more often in hot weather. Be sure to water at the base of the plant to avoid getting water on the leaves or flowers.

Bulb Storage

If you have bulbs that need to be stored over the winter, it's important to do so properly. Store them in a cool, dry place with good air circulation, such as a paper bag or mesh container. Be sure to label the container with the type of bulb and the date it was stored.

Summer Bulbs for Butterflies

Planting bulbs that attract butterflies can add a beautiful and lively element to your garden. Some popular summer bulbs for butterflies include crocosmias, lantanas, and zinnias.

Bulb Deadheading

Removing spent flowers, or deadheading, can help promote more blooms and a longer flowering period. Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut off the spent flowers just below the base of the flower.

Bulb Winter Care

If you live in a cold climate, it's important to take care of your bulbs in the winter. Cover them with a layer of mulch or leaves to protect them from extreme temperatures. Be sure to remove the covering in the spring when the weather warms up.

Summer Bulbs for Bees

Bees are important pollinators and can help your garden thrive. Planting bulbs that attract bees can help support local ecosystems. Some popular summer bulbs for bees include alliums, crocosmias, and gladiolus.

Bulb Naturalizing

Naturalizing bulbs means allowing them to spread and grow on their own over time. This can create a beautiful and low-maintenance garden. Some popular bulbs for naturalizing include daffodils, crocuses, and snowdrops.
