It’s that exciting time of the year again, when we start planting spring bulbs in pots, containers, planters, beds and borders. The more spring bulbs we plant during autumn, the more spring flowers we will be able to enjoy.

An excellent planting technique is called a spring bulb lasagne; this method is the layering of bulbs to produce a continuous flow of spring flowers. The spring bulb lasagne planting method is the way to create a continuous spring flower display in pots, tubs, containers, beds and borders. The aim is to have flowers popping up during the whole of springtime.

It’s time to pick and order quality spring bulbs, including snowdrops, crocuses, hyacinths, daffodils, alliums and tulips and quality peat-free compost, so you can do this simple planting technique right now.

So how does the spring bulb lasagne work? This is an example for you. If you plant allium bulbs at the base of a pot, add a layer of compost, then plant tulip bulbs, add a layer of compost, then plant daffodil bulbs, add a layer of compost, then plant Crocus corms and then cover those to the top of your pot, then you have a spring bulb lasagne.

These four layers of spring bulbs will give you a continuous flow of flowers from March through to May.

You can use this spring bulb lasagne planting method in your garden to create a continuous flow of spring flowers in your garden. The more pots, containers, tubs, planters, beds and borders that contain spring bulbs, the bigger and better the floral display will be, so the spring bulb planting starts right now.
