Your bulbs will arrive to you potted, pre-rooted and having undergone all the necessary temperature treatments to be ready to grow and bloom!
The shredded wood on top of your garden is there for protection during shipping, and should be carefully removed upon arrival. The emerging shoots of your bulbs may look pale and bent over, but this is normal. After a few days of water and light, they’ll begin to straighten out and turn green. If your garden arrives frozen (which will not affect the quality of these cold-weather bulbs), allow it to thaw overnight before watering.
Your bulbs will be happiest grown in a cool location that receives bright light. Your sunniest window away from a direct heat source will be the best spot. Rotate the garden periodically to allow for even light and to keep the stalks growing straight. Soil should be kept evenly moist at all times. Bulbs will take up a lot of water quickly, so check the moisture level daily. Pinch off flower heads as they fade.
Long and leggy stems can be a result of high temps and/or low light – if this happens, you can stake the blooms, cut the stems and enjoy them in a vase, or embrace and enjoy the wild look!
Many bulbs may be planted outdoors in a sunny location once all danger of frost has passed (zones 3-8 only). Forcing bulbs indoors uses up a great deal of their energy, and it may take a few years for the bulbs to rejuvenate and bloom again.
