Freesia single - Blue - Fragrant Evening Scent - Bulbs - Large Pack - 100 pcs

The subtle blue of the single freesia brings a sense of calm reminiscent of a summer morning—light, fresh and serene. Its distinctive colour and elegant form catch the eye, whether planted in groups or containers, lending a refined touch to garden displays.

Planting time

For planting outdoors, begin from mid-April to early May, once the risk of frost has passed. In containers, planting is also possible in autumn or late winter. Freesias thrive in sunny or lightly shaded spots with fertile, well-drained soil and a pH between 6.0 and 7.2.

Planting depth

In garden beds, bulbs should be set 6–8 cm deep, spaced 10 cm apart. In containers, plant at a depth of 5–6 cm, with 5–10 bulbs per pot of approximately 30 cm diameter.

Care

The soil should remain consistently, but moderately, moist. Before planting, enriching the substrate with compost is recommended. During the growing season, feed every 2–3 weeks with a fertiliser rich in phosphorus and potassium to encourage abundant flowering. Avoid overwatering.

Flowering period

Freesias planted in spring will flower from late June through to August. When started earlier in containers, blooms may appear as early as May and continue into September. The flowers are well-suited to cutting and retain their freshness for an extended period.

Height

Plants reach 30–50 cm in height. Their slender stems, adorned with numerous flowers, pair beautifully with pale or pastel companions, creating balanced and harmonious arrangements.

Winter hardiness

Bulbs should be lifted before the onset of frost and stored in a dry, cool place (8–15°C) until spring.

Uses

Blue freesia is ideal for borders, containers, and as a cut flower. Its unique colour adds originality to plantings, while the delicate fragrance enhances the natural character of any arrangement. Many gardeners seeking bulbs for garden displays or premium bulbs for cut flower arrangements choose this variety.
