PETITTI Summer-Blooming Bulbs Part 1: Starting Tender Bulbs in Containers Early Spring

One of the best ways to get gorgeous cut-flowers for homemade bouquets is by planting tender bulbs. This year, Jason dedicated some of his raised bed space to a cut-flower garden filled with summer-blooming bulbs including, Dahlias, Calla Lilies, Canna Lilies, Pineapple Lillies, Gladiolas and Elephant Ears. Watch this video with Noelle, Horticulturist and Education Director with Petitti Garden Centers, and Jason, Petitti team member and gardening expert, as they start Jason's summer-blooming bulbs in containers. Starting tender bulbs early in pots gives them a jump-start on the growing season so they can begin flowering for you faster. Planting with fresh potting soil and an organic, slow-release fertilizer such as @EspomaOrganic Bulb-tone® will give your plants plenty of energy to grow beautifully for you this season!
