Planting Time

Plant Ixia bulbs in autumn, ideally between September and October. This timing gives the bulbs the best chance to establish strong roots before winter.

Planting Depth

Set the bulbs at a depth of 6-8 cm in well-drained soil to support healthy growth and successful flowering.

Spacing

Leave 8-10 cm between each bulb. This spacing allows each plant enough room to develop, resulting in a natural and dense display.

Height

Ixia typically grows to 35-50 cm, making it suitable for the front or middle of borders. Its size also works well in mixed summer planting with other flowering species.

Flowering Time

The colourful blooms appear from June to July, adding a lively highlight to summer gardens for several weeks. The mixed colours ensure continuous visual interest throughout the flowering period.

Hardiness & Overwintering

In milder areas, Ixia bulbs can remain in the ground over winter. In colder locations, it is advisable to lift the bulbs after flowering and store them in a dry, airy place until spring. This helps protect them from frost and ensures reliable regrowth.

Uses

Ixia’s mixed colours make it suitable for a range of settings, from borders and gravel gardens to pots and rockeries. The long-lasting flowers are also excellent for cutting, bringing their vibrant appeal indoors. These perennial bulbs are especially valued for their adaptability and striking visual effect.
