A classic winter flowering favourite and one few of us would want to be without, reminding us that spring is just around the corner. The nodding, honeyscented, white single flowers, with inner green markings, start to appear in early January and continue through into February. Great for naturalising too.
Signifying that spring has arrived, bulbs create splashes of colour throughout the garden and they are perfect for planting into patio pots and window boxes. Easy to grow and care for, they will bloom with the minimum of attention and are great for cutting too. We have trialled and tested all of the bulbs we sell and work closely with our growers to ensure we offer the very best, top-sized bulbs available to produce a wonderful spring show.
