Description

A fabulous collection of double-flowered freesias to bring a mixture of colours and perfume to your garden.

These stunning double blooms will flower more prolifically than the single-flowered varieties, producing gorgeous, trumpet-shaped freesia flowers with a delicious fragrance above the narrow, lance-shaped leaves.

A native of South Africa - we tend to think that growing them in the UK will be difficult, but this isn't the case - they're really easy! Freesias grow well in a sunny spot in well-drained soil and are a great candidate for a pot in a sunny greenhouse or conservatory or on the patio.

A cut-flower favourite and a popular cottage garden flower, you can keep your home filled with the delightful scent of fragrant, fresh-cut flowers.

Supplied as a collection of 50 mixed-colour freesia corms.

Top Tips
If you're wondering what month to plant your freesias, then April-May is the ideal time! Try planting your corms at intervals of 7-10 days to get a continual display of flowers throughout summer.
Care Information

In the garden

  • Freesias are a corm as opposed to a bulb, and can be planted outside from April - May. Plant straight into the ground, pointy end upwards, in a well-drained spot in sun or light shade.
  • Growing plants benefit from a potash-rich feed.


In containers

  • Plant six bulbs 1-2in deep. Use a good quality compost with a little extra grit for drainage.
  • Water regularly and keep them moist (but not soaking) and shaded at all times – a cold greenhouse or conservatory is ideal.
  • Once the corms start to sprout, move the pots into full sunlight and keep watering. When the buds show colour, you can bring them indoors.
  • After flowering cut off faded blooms and continue to water and feed until the foliage begins to brown, then cease watering.
  • A period of at least eight weeks of growth is required to encourage offsets. If growing on for a second year the foliage needs to dry off by early July.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
