Ipheion (Spring Starflower) - Uniflorum - Long-Lasting Spring Blooms - Bulbs - 10 pcs

With the first light of spring, Ipheion Uniflorum introduces a gentle fragrance and fresh, light blue blooms to the garden. These compact, perennial bulbs add a subtle charm, standing out with their delicate flowers and understated scent that softly fills the air. At 10-25 cm tall, Ipheion naturally complements both mixed spring plantings and single-species displays, offering a refined touch to borders and rockeries during the early months of the growing season.

Planting Time

Ipheion bulbs are best planted from September to October. This timing provides the bulbs with the right conditions to establish roots before winter, ensuring healthy spring growth.

Planting Depth

Set each bulb 6-10 cm deep in the soil. Planting at this depth protects the bulbs from cold and encourages robust development.

Spacing

Allow 10 cm between each bulb to give the plants space to grow and spread naturally. This spacing supports healthy clusters and an attractive display of blooms.

Height

When mature, Ipheion reaches a height of 10-25 cm. This makes it well suited for the front of borders, amongst low perennials, or as part of a rock garden.

Flowering Time

Ipheion flowers from April to May, producing light blue, star-shaped blooms. The spring flowering period brings a fresh look to the garden, while the subtle fragrance enhances the atmosphere during this time.

Hardiness & Overwintering

These garden bulbs are fully hardy and overwinter easily in the ground. They do not require lifting after flowering, making them an excellent choice for gardeners seeking reliable, low-maintenance perennial bulbs.

Uses

Ipheion is ideal for naturalistic plantings, mixed borders, rockeries, and containers. The gentle colour and pleasant scent suit gardens where a harmonious, understated effect is desired. These bulbs for gardens also perform well in patio pots, bringing spring interest to smaller spaces.
