If you have them now, plant them now. We do not send our out until early spring but get them in the ground if you have them.

Do you supply?
Query cost?

Hi Mary

Yes we sell Nerines, they are known as the Guernsey Lily but they are not a true lily and do not attract the lily beetle. They need planting in the Spring for Autumn flowering.
You can find all planting and care instructions under each product.

NERINE bulb planting & delivery month

This question was asked by
– John

Wanting to order now but not expecting bulbs until early March.

Are these surface planted – with only lower half below surface?

Hi John

Yes that is correct. Nerines will be dispatched in the Spring (you can choose which month from your Basket). They need planting with their necks above ground. Have you seen our Breeder’s Blend – the colours look magnificent together.

I am looking to buy gizmo lilies as a gift, I have read dispatch for the lily bulbs is Feb to June. Is this correct?
Kind regards
Angie

Hi Angie

Yes this is correct as lilies need planting in the spring for summer flowering. If it’s a gift for Christmas, may I suggest sending a gift voucher containing a personal message suggesting you wanted to them to order the Gizmo lilies.

Nerines –

This question was asked by
Roberts – 

When do I divide nerines?

Good morning,
You do not need to divide Nerine bulbs as they prefer to become quite congested and grow in clumps. Also, Nerines do not like to be disturbed so establish a decent position from the off and avoid moving them.
Protect in very cold areas with a mulch over winter.
Hope this helps. Further instructions on planting and caring for Nerines can be found on each product page:

I would like to know when you despatch Nerine Bulbs?

Thanks

Hi

You can pre-order your nerines now for delivery in the spring when they need planting. We sold out last year after Monty Don featured them on Gardener’s World.

Nerine Bulbs

Hi, I wish to order some Nerine bulbs to give as a Christmas present but wasn’t sure if the bulbs would be sent before Christmas or if they are sent out January/February.
Thanks

Hi there,
Unfortunately, Nerines are available for dispatch in the Spring (March) for Summer flowering (https://www.hartsnursery.co.uk/Nerine/). We do however offer Gift Vouchers online which would be a nice Chirstmas Present so the recipient can choose which varieties they would like.
