Annual Blooms Readied Before Winter for Epic Spring Spectacle Persisting for Extended Periods
Spring is upon us, and with it comes a burst of colour and fragrance as spring-flowering bulbs begin to bloom. These delightful little treasures are planted in the fall and emerge even before winter bids its last farewell.
One such bulb is the humble crocus, with its small, sweet, and simple flowers that boast bright little faces. The 'Tricolor Crocus' is particularly striking, featuring separate bands of violet, white, and gold.
Another spring favourite is the daffodil, a common type of spring-flowering bulb. The 'Suncatcher' cultivar offers fully double blooms in bright yellow with ruffles of orange between the petals and frilly peachy-orange centers. Newer daffodil cultivars have also expanded the palette, offering white/yellow flowers, pink on pink, double daffodils, and even fragrant daffodils.
Ranunculus, another type of spring-flowering bulb, is known for its layers and layers of petals in brilliant colours, including hues of yellow, pink, orange, red, purple, and white. The 'Chamallow' cultivar, for instance, has pale pink and peach petals that open to reveal a soft green center.
Tulips, yet another common type of spring-flowering bulb, come in thousands of cultivars in every colour, shape, and size. The 'Amazing Parrot' cultivar, for example, boasts big, deep pink petals with orange edges and centers. The 'Miss Saigon' cultivar, on the other hand, features royal purple flowers with starry violet florets.
Peonies, with their huge, fluffy, double blossoms, are a sight to behold. The extremely popular 'Sarah Bernhardt' variety showcases these qualities in a soft and delicate pink. These flowers make wonderful vase flowers and attract bees and other pollinators with their large, luscious blooms.
Lastly, we have the hyacinth, a bulb known for its unforgettable and powerful fragrance. Modern cultivars have expanded the original blue shade options into a rainbow of colours.
As the days grow longer and warmer, take a moment to appreciate the vibrant display of colour and fragrance that spring-flowering bulbs bring to our gardens and homes.
