Flamingo pink blooms with a classic goblet shape rise upwards on sturdy stems in mid-spring. Tulip ?Pink Giant? is bold and beautiful, suffusing beds and borders in a warming splash of colour that tones beautifully with its blue-green foliage.
One of the most opulent and striking of the autumn-flowering bulbs, Colchicums are best known for their spectacular goblet-shaped, lilac-pink flowers in September and October. Colchicum flowers emerge first from their summer dormancy, earning the name 'Naked Ladies', followed by large, strappy leaves that are retained until mid-summer. Fully hardy and the perfect candidate for naturalising in grass, colchicum is one of those bulbs that surprise and delight every year when they emerge in a prelude to the main spring bulb event - giving us a taster of what the new year will bring. Each large bulb will produce multiple flowers and are an excellent choice for rockeries or for borders where drainage is good, and they can even be grown on a windowsill without soil in a hyacinth vase (or even a saucer). Easy to grow in good, fertile soil, the bright flowers of this autumn crocus are weather resistant too, giving a good display when many other plants are becoming dormant. Supplied as a pack of 3 bulbs, ready for immediate planting.

A stunning sight, 'Red Giant' is quite unlike any other allium. With its relatives renowned for their tall, stiff stems that carry flowers high above the low growing foliage, this incredible variety does the exact opposite! In May and June, the flowerhead emerges and erupts into a globe, 12 cm (5 in) in diameter, made up of dozens or small, reddish purple flowers sitting just above the broad, arching green foliage. Recommended by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators', Bees and butterflies adore 'Red Giant' just as much as any other allium. An ideal and unusual plant for growing at the front of borders, it also works extremely well when planted in groups in containers, having a very architectural look when in flower. Even though the stems are short, the flowers still look great indoors and in bouquets, whether fresh or dried, and they add winter interest, and an insect habitat, if left on the plant over the winter. Alliums aren't fussy about soil type but do prefer a sunny location. They will naturalise easily, multiplying over the years. Clumps can be dug up and split every few years, which will stop them becoming congested. Supplied as 5 bulbs, size 12/14, ready to plant in autumn, growing to a height and spread of 25 cm (10 in).
