Bulbs to plant in Autumn

Bulbs make a fine display planted in containers or borders, especially daffodils, snowdrops and tulips in spring. They are one of the easiest and most rewarding garden plants to grow.


  • Plant spring-flowering bulbs, such as daffodils, crocus and hyacinths, preferably by the end of September
  • Plant tulips in November
  • Plant hardy summer-flowering bulbs, such as lilies, alliums and crocosmia, in September and October
