In the summer garden, double freesia blooms emerge as a colourful whisper – their delicate, full flowers rise above the foliage, carrying an intense fragrance and an airy elegance. This mixed variety brings energy, harmony and sophistication together in one vibrant display.
Freesia bulbs are planted outdoors in spring, from mid-April to early May, once the risk of frost has passed. For pots, planting can also take place at this time. Choose a sunny or lightly shaded spot with fertile, well-drained soil and a pH of 6.0–7.2. Incorporating compost before planting is recommended.
When planting in the ground, bulbs should be set at a depth of 6–8 cm. In containers, plant them slightly shallower, at 5–6 cm.
Space bulbs approximately 10 cm apart in beds. In a 30 cm diameter pot, 5–10 bulbs can be accommodated. Use a light, free-draining substrate such as a mix of peat, sand and perlite. Position containers in a bright location and water moderately.
Freesias reach a height of 30–50 cm, their slender stems topped with clusters of double blooms in a spectrum of colours.
Flowering occurs from late June to August, and with favourable conditions, may extend into September. Their full, fragrant flowers stand out in the garden and are excellent for cutting.
Freesias are not winter hardy outdoors. After flowering, lift the bulbs, clean them and store in a dry, well-ventilated place at 8–15°C until the next season.
Freesias are ideal for borders, home gardens, allotments and containers. Their blooms retain freshness for a long time in a vase, making them highly valued for bouquets and floral arrangements. These premium bulbs are a favourite among those looking for vibrant bulb collections from a trusted garden plants shop.
