Snowflake Aestivum Giant Bulbs

These Snowflakes are like big Lily of the Valley, with green-dotted nodding blooms in the early spring, a beautiful fragrance, but with tall stately stems that just beg to brought indoors for a spring bouquet. It's our favorite fall filler.

Includes 12 bulbs in a cloth bag with planting instructions and a wooden label stake.

Growing Info
How to Plant Dig a hole and tuck your bulbs in, pointy side up, about 6" deep (roughly 3 times the size of the bulbs) and about 3" apart. You can plant them closer for a fuller display, but be sure the bulbs don't touch. Now fill in the soil, give it a few solid pats so it compresses around the bulbs, then give it a long drink of water. Mark that pot or spot with your wooden plant marker so you know where your Snowflakes live now. Wait for spring
Where to Plant Find a place that gets at least partial sun; 4 or more hours a day
When to Plant Plant in the Fall, anytime before the ground freezes for the last time
When to Expect Blooms Mid Spring
Care Instructions Water when soil is dry, once leaves appear
Extra Credit If planting in a container, be sure the pot has ample drainage. Fill the bottom 2-3" of the pot with pebbles to prevent clogging. Wait for the foliage to wilt and turn yellow before clipping it back late spring, so that the bulb can store energy for the next year's blooms. When picking flowers for bouquets, be sure to leave at least one leaf per plant
