Commonly Asked Questions

What are the best spring bedding plants?

The best spring bedding plants include pansies, violas, primroses, polyanthus, wallflowers, bellis, miniature daffodils, and cyclamen. These plants are celebrated for their vibrant colours and ability to thrive in cooler spring temperatures.

When should you plant spring bedding plants?

Spring bedding plants should be planted after the last frost, which typically occurs in late March to early April, depending on your local climate. Hardy annuals and perennials can also be planted in September to overwinter.

When should I start bedding plants?

Start bedding plants indoors about six to eight weeks before the last spring frost. This indoor start gives them ample time to grow strong and healthy before transplanting them to their outdoor locations.

Is it safe to put bedding plants out now?

It is safe to plant your spring bedding plants in late May or early June, once the threat of frost has passed. This timing ensures the young plants will not be damaged by unexpected cold temperatures.

Do bedding plants come back year after year?

Annual bedding plants need to be replanted each year as they die at the end of the season. However, perennial bedding plants return year after year, providing lasting beauty and colour for your garden with minimal replanting effort.
