How to Plant Unique Fall Bulbs? |

To plant Unique Fall Bulbs the bulbs should be planted with the nose of the bulb upward (or the roots facing downwards) and the Striped Squill 40 bulbs/pack should be planted roughly 3-4" deep and 2-3" apart from one another.
Note: For some bulbs you may not be able to tell which way is up or down, in these cases just plant them on their side and they will adjust on their own.

When to Plant Striped Squill 40 bulbs/pack? |
