Biologische Bloembollen – Natural Bulbs

Organic flower bulbs come in all shapes and sizes, each with its own unique scent, color, and appeal. They bring the first colorful life to a dormant winter garden early in spring, with some varieties lasting until late autumn.

Spring bloomers are real eye-catchers that enhance your garden and are beneficial for the insects around us. As we become increasingly aware of environmentally responsible choices aimed at leaving nature as untouched as possible, this awareness is also growing among many flower bulb growers. That’s why more and more flower bulb growers are marketing organic flower bulbs.

What are organic flower bulbs?

Organic flower bulbs are free of pesticides, meaning they are purely natural. Why would you grow flowers and want to kill beneficial pollinators? It’s now clear that pesticides often do more harm than good. And then there’s the fact that flower bulb fields cover vast areas of hectares where insects no longer live and birds will find no food…

This is in comparison to organic flower bulbs, where life in and around the nursery is disrupted as little as possible. The insects live peacefully among the many rows of colorful flowers and even help out in their cultivation. Besides the many beneficial insects attracted to the fields of flowers, several birds also enjoy feeding on the insects. This helps maintain the populations in the region.

How many bulbs per m2 do I need?

Here are the rules for SPRING BLOOMERS:

• General rule of thumb: 20 flower bulbs per m2
• Small bulbs: 50 to 200 flower bulbs per m2
• Large bulbs: 15 to 25 flower bulbs per m2 (or as an accent between perennials – 5 bulbs per m2)
• Plant naturalising flower bulbs a little wider so that they have room to expand

After flowering

• You can leave naturalizing species until the leaves have wilted. Then you can cut them back or simply leave them. Some naturalizing species benefit from being moved to another part of your garden after 2-3 years (tall Alliums, daffodils).
• You can leave (small) tulips growing wild. Remove the flowers after flowering. Be careful not to accidentally hoe or dig them away. It’s best to avoid seed formation, as they won’t bloom for the first seven years. Spontaneous seeding produces grassy foliage, which you’ll likely accidentally hoe away. Therefore, remove the spent flowers.
• Regular (tall) tulips should definitely be dug up after the leaves have wilted. You can store the bulbs as needed (airy and dry) until autumn to plant them in a fresh spot where no tulips have grown. If you do leave them, there’s a good chance a specific tulip fungus will infect your soil and ruin new tulip blooms.
