The Woodland Garden Collection – 50 Spring Flowering Bulbs
Bring the beauty of a woodland garden to your outdoor space with The Woodland Garden Collection, a carefully selected mix of 50 spring-flowering bulbs.
Featuring five complementary varieties, including traditional bluebells, snake's head fritillaries and Siberian squill, this collection is perfect for creating a natural, informal spring display beneath deciduous trees and shrubs, along woodland-style borders or in other suitable areas of the garden.
Plant the bulbs in autumn and look forward to a succession of delicate spring flowers returning as the garden begins to wake from winter.
A Beautiful Mix of 50 Woodland Garden Bulbs
Each collection contains:
-
10 Hyacinthoides non-scripta – traditional bluebells
-
10 Puschkinia libanotica – Lebanon striped squill
-
10 Fritillaria meleagris – snake's head fritillary
-
10 Scilla siberica – Siberian squill
-
10 Chionodoxa luciliae – glory of the snow
Together, these varieties create a relaxed, natural-looking display with different flower forms and heights.
Perfect for Woodland-Style Planting
This mixed bulb collection is an excellent way to recreate the charm of a traditional woodland or cottage garden.
Plant the bulbs informally beneath deciduous trees and shrubs, through suitable borders or in naturalistic drifts. Scilla siberica, for example, is recommended by the RHS for naturalising and underplanting shrubs, while Puschkinia libanotica is well suited to underplanting as well as cottage and informal gardens.
Create a Natural Spring Display
For the most natural effect, avoid planting your bulbs in perfectly straight rows. Instead, arrange them in informal groups and drifts throughout the planting area.
The collection includes a wonderful mixture of spring favourites, from the distinctive chequered flowers of snake's head fritillaries to delicate squills and traditional bluebells.
Many of these bulbs are compact, making them particularly useful for filling spaces beneath taller plants and bringing early-season interest to areas that can otherwise look bare in spring.

Planting Your Woodland Bulbs
Plant the bulbs during autumn, following the individual planting depth recommendations supplied with the bulbs.
Choose an area with suitable, well-drained soil and take account of the individual varieties when selecting the planting position. Many woodland-style bulbs perform well in partial or dappled shade, while some are equally happy in sunnier positions.
For a more established woodland effect, plant bulbs in generous informal groups and allow suitable varieties to naturalise over time.
