That’s why now is the time to learn more about proper autumn planting of bulbs!
Which flowers arise from bulbs? Which of them I can last nameand which ones don’t? How it should be done proper autumn planting of bulbs? The answers are provided by our professional associate, graduate engineer Vladimir Milutinović.
„If we want to have in the spring flowers that will beautify our gardenwe should know that it is autumn is the right time for planting bulbs, because from autumn to spring the plant has enough time to develop and form its tree.
Different types of plants can be used for planting and their bulbs can be bought from shops such as garden centers and the like.“
Autumn and spring bulbs
„When planting bulbs, it should be known that such plants require a sufficient amount of nutrients, that is, a well-prepared substrate. The main reason bulbs are used is because they are perennials. This means that once the bulbs are planted they persist in the same place every year, which above all applies to autumn bulbsspecies that overwinter here.”

“However, there are bulbous species that are sown here as spring bulbs. These are species that cannot overwinter, so it is necessary to remove them during the year. They are gladioli, begonias or dahlias.“
