Scilla is one of the world’s best selling bulbs – producing a carpet of blue that expands each year as each bulb multiples into many. They are used at Ashton’s Garden Centre on our Woodland and Fairy Walk. Suitable for shady locations such as woodland, or in full sun, they are deer and rabbit resistant and flower early in the season. Scilla bulbs should be planted at a ratio of 15 per square foot for maximum impact in beds and borders, but spread out much further when planting in woodland, where they will fill the gaps between them in a matter of 3-5 years. Scilla can also be planted directly into your lawn – they can be mowed over after they finish flowering and will still come back the following year. Bulbs will be ready for collection in September – we will call to let you know when they have arrived – Bulbs are currently only available for collection – we do not offer a mailing service.
