I received 3 x rhizomes from you this time last year, they flowered beautifully during April, May and June and then gradually died down.
I have kept them in a pot inside since.
Are they likely to re-flower this year?Many thanks and regards,
Gary Austin
Hi Gary
Yes, your Gloriosa should flower again this year. They may have even multiplied? Start them off indoors and then move them outside in the summer months.
All the best

Gloriosa
This question was asked by
When & how do I start my gloriosa tubers back into growth please? I have stored them in a cold, frost free place over winter.
Thank you,Vivien Hubbuck
Hi Vivien
You can start off your Gloriosa now indoors before transferring them outside in the summer months. Plant in pots with suitable drainage holes.
Plant 3 Rhizomes to a 14-16 inch pot.
Use a multi-purpose compost or John Innes No. 3 for your Gloriosa.
Site your Gloriosa Lilies where they will receive full sun to light shade, so on a window sill or in a conservatory would be ideal.
The root and shoot come from the same end and need to be planted downwards on a 45 degree angle in a triangle formation. They’ll figure out which way is up.
Plant the Rhizome 3-4″ deep and 6-8″ apart. The tip of the Rhizome can point out the top of the soil by an inch.
Take care NOT to touch the growing points on the bulbs; bumping and abraiding this area tends to reduce sprouting

Pink or Purple Flowers for Summer
This question was asked by
Hi, I am creating a narrow border for a holiday cottage. I wanted to repeat plant something with a pom pom flower – to give the border some structure and because I like them 🙂 I have been looking at both agapanthus and alliums, but I am not sure on a variety that would work best. With both agapanthus and alliums, I prefer the varieties that have thinner, more grass like leaves that stay neat, but I have found it difficult to find the height I wanted (60cm +). The border is north east facing and I’m in north Derbyshire, so I need something that is fully hardy. I would prefer something purple or pink. I wonder if you have any ideas please.
Hi Anne-Marie
It’s the wrong time of year to plant Alliums as these need planting in the Autumn for Spring flowering. With Alliums, the foliage dies back before the flower comes. Therefore based on your requirements, I would suggest Agapanthus. You could also look at Nerines as these will flower a little after the Agapanthus into the Autumn giving you more colour for longer.

Does the mixed Dahlias mean that you can get different colours from one tuber (single plant). Thank you for your help.
William
Hi William
No each tuber will produce the same coloured flower. The mix pack means you will receive 5 different tubers that will each produce different coloured flowers.
We do have Rebecca’s World Dahlia that does produce different variations of colour on each flower from the one tuber. It’s spectacular.

Large Lily Flower Heads
This question was asked by
Which varieties of lilies has the largest flowers? Not including the giant lilies please.
Hi Riki
The Oriental Lilies will have the largest flower heads if you are not wanting the tree lilies.
Have a look at Casa Blanca, Auratum goldband or Homerus, these are good varieties with large flowers.

Ive already given you a review on Trustpilot, but you consistently deliver top quality bulbs,it cant have been easy with Brexit and Covid and I have seen other once good suppliers dip in quality over this time, but not you.
I have never ever bought those small spring Iris bulbs and known them bloom ,but the ones from you !! Crikey they are outstanding.
So to sum up your products are worth every penny . I am really looking forward to the summer ,we have reclaimed much of the garden from the Chickens so have lots of space, the Chickens are not happy 🙁 . Lol.
Thank you all of you in your team .Kind regards

Having received a lovely parcel of your bulbs from a friend, I would like to do the same as a birthday gift please. A mix of lily bulbs of different heights would be ideal.
I look forward to hearing from you.
That’s absolutely no problem at all. You can choose one of our collections for ease if you’d prefer and when you check out, enter your details for the billing address and your friend’s details for the shipping address. You’ll need to tick the box where it says ship to a different address.
I have linked the lily collections below for you.
