Ixia - Mabel - Thrives in Full Sun - Bulbs - 25 pcs

The pink Ixia ‘Mabel’ offers striking colour and refined form for those seeking a vibrant display without demanding care routines. These garden bulbs are especially well-suited to beginners, as they establish quickly and flower generously in their first season. Slender stems and vivid blooms bring a sense of freshness to borders and containers, while the summer flowering period ensures a prominent highlight among seasonal plantings.

Planting Time

Plant Ixia ‘Mabel’ bulbs in autumn, ideally from September to October. This timing allows the bulbs to root well and prepare for strong spring growth.

Planting Depth

Set the bulbs at a depth of 6-8 cm in the soil. This depth protects them from winter temperatures and supports healthy development.

Spacing

Allow 8-10 cm between each bulb. This spacing encourages compact, decorative clusters and helps each plant to thrive.

Height

Ixia ‘Mabel’ reaches a height of 40-50 cm, making it suitable for mixed borders, containers, or as a feature in smaller garden spaces.

Flowering Time

The prominent pink flowers appear from June to July. During this period, the plant stands out for its distinctive colour and upright inflorescences, making it a strong focal point in summer arrangements.

Hardiness & Overwintering

In milder climates, the bulbs can remain in the ground over winter. Where winters are colder, lift the bulbs after flowering and store them in a dry, well-ventilated place until the following planting season.

Uses

Ixia ‘Mabel’ performs well in sunny borders, mixed plantings with other perennial bulbs, and in pots on balconies or terraces. The flowers last well when cut, making them a popular choice for summer bouquets. Their vivid pink colour and slender habit add a distinctive accent to any planting scheme. These flower bulbs offer versatility for a range of garden settings.
