{"product_id":"bloembollen-mix-schaduwtuin","title":"Flower bulb mix Shade garden","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Flower bulb mix Shade garden is a mix of spring-flowering bulbs put together for the less sunny parts of the garden. The flowers come in varied colours, and at around 15 to 40 centimetres the plants stay fairly compact. Under trees and shrubs it naturalises after a few years into a natural carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bulbs are size 10\/12. They suit a shady border, planters on a north-facing balcony or the ground between shrubs and trees. With 50 bulbs you fill a few planters or a spot under a shrub. With 100 bulbs you create a generous group, and with 200 or 400 bulbs you plant a whole strip along the hedge or the ground under a tree; allow 50 to 70 bulbs per square metre.

The soil has then cooled to below 10 °C, so the bulbs form roots but do not sprout yet. If the ground is not frozen, you can keep planting into December. Skip spring: without winter cold, flowering will not get going.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhen do the Flower bulb mix Shade garden flower?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Flower bulb mix Shade garden flowers from March into May. Because the species open one after another, the display lasts about two months, while a single flower lasts one to three weeks. In a sheltered spot against a wall flowering starts a little earlier, after a long, cold winter later. As the bulbs naturalise, the group gets fuller every spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and tips Flower bulb mix Shade garden\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlace the bulbs pointed end up in the planting hole, at a depth of two to three times the bulb height; for this size that is about 10 to 12 centimetres. Leave 8 to 10 centimetres between the bulbs. Under trees the soil is often dry and full of roots; work some compost or leaf mould into the top layer there. In a planter, holes in the bottom and a layer of clay pebbles provide drainage; among our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/green-bubble.com\/en-pl\/collections\/outside-pots-in-baskets\"\u003eoutdoor pots and baskets\u003c\/a\u003e you will find planters that are suitable. Let the foliage yellow after flowering before removing it. Fallen leaves can stay in autumn as natural fertiliser.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWater needs of the Flower bulb mix Shade garden\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder deciduous trees the soil can be drier in spring than you think, because the tree roots take up a lot of moisture. In a dry March or April, feel whether the soil is still moist and water if necessary. In planters, water about once a week from the moment the leaves appear. Avoid wet, compacted soil, because the bulbs will rot in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLight needs of the Flower bulb mix Shade garden\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mix is made for partial shade. A spot with a few hours of morning or evening sun, or with dappled light under trees, is ideal. Under deciduous trees the bulbs still get plenty of light in early spring, before the canopy closes. They also grow in full sun, but there the flowering is shorter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAre the Flower bulb mix Shade garden toxic?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Flower bulb mix Shade garden is mildly toxic if ingested, especially the bulbs. Make sure pets and young children cannot get to them. Wear garden gloves when planting, because the sap of some bulbs can irritate sensitive skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow will my Flower bulb mix Shade garden be shipped?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour bulbs are carefully packed and shipped. That way they arrive safely and fresh from the grower.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Everspring","offers":[{"title":"50 bulbs","offer_id":53909075067146,"sku":"61442","price":205.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 bulbs","offer_id":53909092991242,"sku":"61545","price":265.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"200 bulbs","offer_id":53909093024010,"sku":"61830","price":359.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true},{"title":"400 bulbs","offer_id":53909093056778,"sku":"61547","price":569.0,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/4779\/2394\/files\/thumbnail_2000_b2e4903b-73aa-47f4-b5b8-58758f6206f6.png?v=1792014255","url":"https:\/\/green-bubble.com\/en-pl\/products\/flower-bulb-mix-shade-garden","provider":"Green Bubble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
