Planting

Depth

How deep should I plant my fall bulbs outdoors?

The basic rule of thumb is that the hole should be at least three times as deep as the height of the bulb. Use the chart below for the required planting depth of your bulbs.  Don't worry about your bulbs being planted an inch or two deeper than recommended; in most cases this provides the bulb with a little extra protection. 


How do I force my bulbs for indoor blooms? If so, most bulbs require a certain amount of chill-time in the refrigerator before they can be forced.  Eight to fifteen weeks is the general requirement.  See the "Chill Chart" below for approximate chill-times for most bulbs.  You should, however, follow the package directions for any bulbs you purchase.  If you cut the chill-time short for any bulbs, you may get blooms, but they will probably be stunted or deformed.
