Gardening How-To - About Bulbs: Summer Flowering
Summer flowering bulbs (tender bulbs)
such as Begonias,
Dahlias, Gladioli, &
Anemones and hardy bulbs, such as Lilies,
are planted in late spring when there is no longer a chance of
ground frost. A couple of months later they will bloom. Summer flowering
bulbs will bloom in most climates but most of them are not winter
hardy. This means that in some cold climates most summer flowering
bulbs should be lifted in the fall following the first frost that
discolours the foliage and stored to be used the next season.
