A gardening expert on the Gardening Direct website recommends that shoppers buy these half-price bulbs now, as it’s the perfect time to plant to ensure a summer bloom.

This is because in spring the soil begins to warm, making the best-selling bulb collection perfect for refreshing any outdoor space

The set includes a range of easy-to-grow, strong-performing British favourites such as gladioli, acidanthera, brodiaea, freesias, allium yellow moly, oxalis iron cross, and liatris spicata..

All of these have a spring planting time from March to June, promising blooms between June and October.

Most notable are the gladioli, freesias, and aidanthera, which all offer low-maintenance, fragrant, and colourful displays.

The gladioli and freesias are multi-coloured flowers that can be cut and brought indoors or spread along patio pots and flower beds.

Both are extremely low-maintenance and easy to care for, whilst also rewarding gardeners with spectacular, colourful blooms (freesias also offer a sweet, strong fragrance).

Liatris spicata produces striking lavender-coloured heads in the key summer months of July to September and is great for attracting bees and other pollinators.

All of the bulbs have been carefully selected for their reliability and ability to thrive in a range of soil types, making them well-suited to the trials and tribulations of the Great British weather.

They’re also ideal for those with limited space as they are suitable for patio containers.

Happy, green-fingered Brits have already been raving about the offer, which has given their gardens a much-needed glow-up.

Many have praised the rewards achieved in such a short time.

“I planted four weeks ago and my first small flowerbud has emerged,” one gardener shared.

“I can see around 200 little sprouts in both my front and back garden beds.”

Another commented on how their bulbs had “taken immediately.”

Others have noted the visual elements, writing, “I was blown away by how many bulbs I received for just £15. My garden has never looked better!”

“The variety is incredible, and the blooms are so vibrant. It’s brought so much life to my garden,” said another, while one described their newly transformed space as “bliss.”

So, shop now to avoid disappointment and get planting to turn your outdoor space into a colourful haven.
