Ixia??

[Deleted]

I know, I know, I shouldn't get carried away by cheap plants, but I picked up a large pack of Ixia bulbs yesterday at Lidl. Unfortunately, the pack says they're for spring planting - but most of the information I've found on the Internet says to plant in autumn. Does anybody have any experience with these? Some of the bulbs are already sprouting, so they should probably go into the ground asap ... any advice gratefully received ... cheers ...

Hiya CC! Ixia's are early summer flowering bulbs I think - so they should definitely be in the ground as soon as you can get them in. They're very pretty! And there's nothing wrong with getting carried away with buying cheap plants.....

Thanks 4P - they're in the ground now so fingers crossed! ... cheers ...
