Summer flowering bulbs make a big impact in the garden and are very different from the spring flowering bulbs that precede them. Whether you’re looking for frilly Papaver bulbs or spectacular Dahlia tubers, there is something for every garden in this collection. Why not accompany your new blooms with some fantastic ground cover shrubs and foliage plants to fill out your garden?
Summer flowering bulbs are usually planted in spring once the soil begins to warm. Alternatively, plant into containers in late winter and be sure to protect from frost.
Unless otherwise stated, our summer flowering bulbs are half-hardy so will need winter protection. Either lift and store them in a frost-free place, or protect them with a thick mulch.
Dahlias, iris and lilies all make lovely cut flowers. For something more unusual, try ranunculus or Anemone coronaria.
