These gorgeous flowers bring a touch of the vibrant South African landscape right into your own garden. And, despite their exotic origin, they’re actually very easy to grow in this country. The top-quality freesia bulbs supplied by Farmer Gracy are heat treated, which means they can be planted outside in the spring and grown just like any other summer-flowering bulb.
Flowering from mid-summer to late autumn, beautifully colourful and exotically fragrant freesias provide a refreshing uplift to the garden, picking up the slack just as other summer flowers are beginning to fade. Not only do they extend the season of colour in your garden, but they’re a popular cut flower too. With exceptional vase life and a rich, powerful scent that will fill your home, there’s really so much enjoyment you can get from having your own fresh cut supply.
Freesias are very versatile and fully deserve their space in any type of planting scheme. Bright, mixed colour blooms such as these are becoming very trendy, too, with the multi-coloured ‘boho’ look now increasingly popular in urban gardens. If you have a small space, grow vivid flowers like freesias in pots positioned at different heights to create a lush, colourful surrounding. They equally good in large gardens too, providing bright pops of colour in beds and borders.
