The rich red of these single freesia blooms draws the eye and lingers in the memory. Their slender, fragrant flowers bring vibrant summer colour to the garden, adding energy and subtle charm to any arrangement. Their lightness and grace blend beautifully with a wide range of garden landscapes.
Freesia bulbs are planted outdoors from mid-April to early May, once the risk of frost has passed. For container cultivation, you can start as early as March or at the beginning of September. Choose a sunny or lightly shaded spot, sheltered from the wind.
In garden beds, plant bulbs at a depth of 6–8 cm, or up to 10 cm in lighter soils. In containers, bulbs should be set more shallowly, at 5–6 cm deep, placing several in a pot with a diameter of around 30 cm.
Allow 10 cm between each bulb when planting in the ground. In containers, group several bulbs together for a fuller display.
These plants reach a height of 30–50 cm. Their elegant stems, topped with vivid red flowers, make a striking feature in both garden beds and pots.
Red freesias bloom outdoors from late June to August. In containers, with earlier planting, they can flower from May and continue to provide colour until September.
Freesias are not winter hardy outdoors. Once growth has finished, lift the bulbs and store them in a cool, dry place at 8–15°C. The same applies to bulbs grown in containers.
Red freesias are ideal for borders, containers, and as cut flowers. Their bold colour enlivens plantings, while their delicate scent brings a distinctive summer note to arrangements. These premium bulbs are a popular choice among those who buy flower bulbs online for vibrant, long-lasting displays.
