Our paperwhites come in a set of three (17cm) bulbs and now in a set of 5 (15cm) bulbs safely tucked away in a classic brown paper bag, accompanied by our growing guide and natural shredded wood wool to keep them snug and fresh.
Our large, robust bulbs, set of 3 (17cm) are great for larger pots and tend to put out larger blooms while our set of 5 (15cm) work great for smaller pots and displays. They are locally grown and sourced, have been carefully selected and are ready for planting. Their notable size makes them the finest choice of their kind. A favorite for forcing indoors during the winter months, the Ziva variety is known for it's powerful fragrance and easy-to-grow tendencies.
NOTE | If you are including these in your ironstone gift set and want them gift wrapped please also add the gift wrap option to your basket.
Planting your bulbs |
Forcing Bulbs.
Forcing simply means encouraging the bulbs to grow outside of their normal growing conditions. Plant your bulbs right side up in fresh soil or among pebbles.
Be sure to have your soil or stones support the bulb but not bury it completely. The upper half of the bulbs should not be covered. Plant as many as you would like as closely as you would like to create a full bouquet come bloom time. Place your pot or bulb vase in a cool room with strong, indirect sunlight and water consistently, making sure that only the roots get watered. As the days go on, you should start to notice little buds emerging from your bulbs and in about 4-6 weeks, you should have full blooms. Your blooms may need some extra support as they grow. We recommend encircling the stems with decorative ribbon or string to hold them upright.
Storing your bulbs |
If storing your bulbs, keep them in the provided paperbag, at a temperature of 60 degrees and store away in a dark, dry place until ready to plant.
