Q.Layer Bulb Lasagna In Central Florida

Zone Winter Park, FL | Anonymous added on February 11, 2023 | Answered

Hello, I’d like to plant large pots to plank my west facing, full sun, entry in central Florida with layered bulbs to BLOOM FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE. I’ve had success with Amaryllis in the ground at my previous Florida home. What combination of bulbs would you suggest for my climate and exposure? Thank you.

If you want the traditional spring blooming bulbs such as tulips and daffodils, they will need to be purchased already chilled or you can chill them yourself for 12 weeks in 40-45 degrees F temperature. These articles should help:
