Characteristics and uses:
The double Freesias bear a multitude of small, varied colours flowers in July and August. They fill your garden with a fragrance reminiscent of Jasmine.
When the risk of frost has disappeared, plant the Freesias bulbs directly in the soil or in pots, in a mix of light compost and sand, 3 to 4 cm deep and spaced out approximately every 10cm. Freesias thrives in a rather dry soil and do not like humidity. Favour light and regular watering. For a flowering in February-March, plant the bulbs in a pot in Autumn. Keep them in a place protected from frost and water them regularly.
For a beautiful display, plant Freesias in groups of 30 bulbs.
You can also use Freesias’ flowers as cut flowers to fill your house with fragrance. - Photos (3)
