    Freesia Bulbs - Honeymoon FAQs

    When do I plant freesia?

    In mild-winter climates, plant freesia corms in fall for spring blooms. In colder regions, plant in spring after the danger of frost has passed for flowers in summer.

    What makes Honeymoon Freesia unique?

    Honeymoon stands out for its elegantly layered double blooms featuring a blend of light pink, deep pink, and creamy white tones. The combination gives each flower a distinctive tricolor appearance.

    When do freesias bloom?

    Freesias generally bloom in spring when planted in fall in mild-winter climates. In colder regions where corms are planted in spring, they typically flower in summer.

    Can freesia stay in the ground over winter?

    In warm, mild-winter climates, the corms can generally remain in the ground. In colder regions, they should be lifted before freezing temperatures or grown as annuals.
