FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Can I plant Sparaxis bulbs now in the UK?

Sparaxis can be planted in late autumn in a frost-free greenhouse or conservatory, or outdoors in spring once the risk of hard frost has passed. In colder areas, spring planting is the safer option.

Where is the best place to grow Sparaxis?

Sparaxis, also known as harlequin flower, needs a sunny, sheltered position with fertile, free-draining soil. It is well suited to borders, rockeries and containers, but does not tolerate cold, wet ground.

How deep should I plant Sparaxis bulbs?

Plant Sparaxis bulbs around 5cm deep and 10cm apart, with the pointed end facing upwards. Water after planting, then keep the soil lightly moist while the plants are actively growing.

Can I grow Sparaxis bulbs in pots?

Yes. Sparaxis is excellent for pots, especially in areas with cold winters. Use a container with drainage holes and free-draining compost, then move the pot to a frost-free place if severe frost is expected.

Will Sparaxis come back every year in the UK?

Sparaxis can return in a mild, sheltered garden, but severe frost can damage the bulbs. Once the foliage has died back after flowering, keep the bulbs dry and protect them from winter cold, or lift and store them frost-free for replanting in spring.
