Know before you buy
To extend your display, plant the bulbs in two-week intervals throughout the spring. This staggered planting schedule ensures you have fresh, fragrant blooms arriving in waves rather than all at once.
Yes, their upright growth habit makes them excellent for containers. Ensure your pot has good drainage to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, and place it in a spot that receives full sun to partial shade.
Freesias are best suited for hardiness zones 9 and 10. If you live in a colder climate, you can treat them as annuals or lift the bulbs in the fall to store them indoors over the winter.
Freesias are highly prized as cut flowers because of their longevity. When harvested at the right stage, they can last for a week or more in a vase, filling your home with their signature sweet fragrance.
For a natural, sweeping visual effect, plant the bulbs in groups of at least 10 to 15. Spacing them closely together allows the clusters of trumpet-shaped flowers to create a dense, impactful display.
