Summer is the perfect time to get out in the garden and plant bulbs that will produce beautiful cut flowers. Bulbs are an easy and affordable way to add a splash of color to your home and garden, and they are low-maintenance too! Dahlias and Lilies are some of the best summer bulbs you can grow for cut flowers.
Dahlia – Dahlias bloom late in the summer and are considered tender bulbs. They come in many different shapes and sizes, with a color range as varied as the rainbow. These eye-catching blooms add texture and dimension to floral arrangements.
Lilies – Lilies are hardy bulbs that come in many varieties, each with a unique shape, size, and color palette. They produce showy blooms on tall stems, which make them perfect for cutting and arranging in vases or bouquets.
We also have a variety of other Summer Blooming Flower Bulbs!
Care Tips: Planting your summer cut flower bulbs is as easy as dig, drop, and done. Once planted, it is important to take care of them to ensure that they continue to bloom. Make sure to water regularly and keep weeds away from the plants. Deadhead blooms as soon as the flowers begin to fade, so the energy goes into producing more flowers instead of seed production.
Now that you know which summer bulbs to plant for cut flowers, it’s time to get out there and start planting! Remember to water regularly and keep an eye on your plants so that they thrive. Have fun creating your own unique arrangements with the blooms from these amazing summer bulbs!
