Bulb Mania: A Celebration of Spring Flowering Bulbs

Our beloved Bulb Market transforms each year into the ultimate gardener's sweet shop. Old fashioned wooden crates line up as far as the eye can see, brimming with over 400 varieties of bulbs. From Tulips, to Crocuses, Narcissi, Irises and more, our passion to find the most prized blooms to household favourites makes for the bulb lover's ultimate playground. This year we will start celebrations in the wake of the Autumn Equinox with a day devoted to all things bulbs!

Ready yourself with any burning questions as we are joined by Adam Taylor of Taylor's Bulbs (renowned British growers). Our expert team will also be on hand with an abundance of advice and help on the day to help you on your way, whether you're completely new to bulbs, or an experienced grower.

For those feeling keen and ready to plant their displays, we are offering complimentary Bulb Planting sessions with our expert team to enable you to walk away with a ready made planted pot. On the day, simply purchase your selection of bulbs and container ready to visit our team for advice and all you need to plant. Prices will vary from £30 depending on your selection of bulbs and containers chosen. All tools and Melcourt Peat-free Compost will be supplied, but we would recommend bringing your own pair of gardening gloves if you require.

We will be learning to plant a fabulous display of layered bulbs, following the Lasagne Planting Technique. Famously utilised to create impactful and exciting displays bursting with colour throughout the season, we will have suggested combinations and plenty of help on hand.
