They bloom spectacularly in the very first year, and can be a perfect quick fix to a new property. Many can also be naturalized to come back year after year adding equity to your home. A mature stand of naturalized narcissi is a feature equal to an aged oak. Bulbs are also easy to plant and can offer low maintenance options. Crocuses, daffodils, other narcissi, tulips, and hyacinths are just where the choices begin.
Bulbs come in a wide range of color, shapes, sizes and plant heights.
Depending on the climate zone and the planting strategy, the show can start as early as February or March and last through June. They can be planted in formal beds, in field or forest, in rock gardens, in marginal areas, along sidewalks and highways, in containers and right in the turf itself. A well-planned strategy for spring color can yield remarkable results, but only if the bulbs are planted in the fall. Color Uniformity Versatility and the opportunity to be creative with very minimal risk make bulbs easily adaptable to your design ideas. Flowering Turf Crocuses of all types are ideal for planting directly in the lawn.
