ANNUAL BULBS ARE EASY TO GROW AND MAINTAIN

Annual bulbs prefer to be planted in the spring after the soil has warmed up enough to be easily workable. Ranunculus and dahlias are especially tender, so wait until all danger of frost has passed to plant these heat-loving gems.

Choose a planting site with well-draining, fertile soil and dig a hole deep enough to place the bulb, and cover with a couple of inches of soil. Depending on that particular plant’s lighting needs, you can choose a site that receives full or partial sun. Freesia and amaryllis tolerate some shade, but elaborate bloomers like dahlias require full sun to bloom to their full potential.

Annual flower bulbs need very little maintenance after the initial planting. Keep the young plants watered and weeded, and stay ahead of any pest invasions. Deadhead spent flowers and prune back dead foliage to promote better airflow between plants and you’ll be rewarded with months of gorgeous blooms.

LIFT ANNUAL BULBS TO REPLANT IN THE SPRING

Who says annual bulbs won’t bloom again? Even though annual bulbs are too tender to survive freezing temperatures, some annual bulbs can overwinter in warmer climates. Check the growing zone for each species, but many annual bulbs can be grown as perennials in zones 9 and above.

Growers in colder regions can recycle annual bulbs at the end of the season by digging the bulbs up before the first fall frost. Ranunculus is one such example–simply cut the stems down to the ground, and use a shovel to gently dig the corms up. Rinse the dirt away and allow the corms to air dry. Store ranunculus corms in a cool, dry place and they will be ready for replanting in the spring!

DIVIDE ANNUAL BULBS FOR MORE SUMMER FLOWERS

You can propagate some annual bulbs through root division. Dahlias are an excellent example of annual bulbs that need to be lifted and replanted every year. To divide dahlia tubers, identify the “eyes,” or sprouts that will produce a stem. Using sanitized garden snips, make a clean cut between different tubers, making sure each has at least one eye. Allow it to callous over for a few days, and your dahlia cuttings will be ready to plant!
