Freesia double - Red - Tolerant of Dry Soils - Bulbs - Large Pack - 100 pcs

As the summer sun warms the soil, the red double freesia emerges with striking intensity—its vivid blooms drawing the eye and enlivening any corner of the garden. These flowers bring a bold energy, adding distinctive character to your outdoor spaces.

Planting time

Plant the bulbs from mid-April to early May, once the risk of frost has passed. For earlier flowering, you can start them in containers from February or March, provided you have a bright, sheltered spot.

Planting depth

In the ground, bulbs should be set at a depth of 6–8 cm. When growing in pots, a depth of 5–6 cm is sufficient, ensuring the plants remain stable and develop evenly.

Planting spacing

A spacing of 10 cm is recommended. In a 30 cm diameter container, plant 5–10 bulbs together to create a cohesive and attractive display.

Height

Plants reach a height of 30–50 cm. Their upright stems are well suited to both group plantings and single-specimen arrangements.

Flowering period

Flowering occurs from late June to August. The intensely red blooms remain fresh for a long time, both in the garden and when cut for vases.

Winter hardiness

Freesias are not winter hardy outdoors. After flowering, lift the bulbs, clean them, and store in a dry, cool place at 8–15°C until spring.

Uses

Red double freesia is ideal for beds, containers, and floral arrangements. Its vibrant colour enhances any planting scheme, and the flowers retain their decorative value for an extended period.
