PLANTING DIRECTIONS
Growing and planting bulbs is simple; if you have soil and sunlight, they will grow! Bulbs are perfect for around trees and bushes, alongside driveways or sidewalks, garden beds, or in fun pots.
1. Dig a hole of an appropriate depth for the bulb size (Follow package directions, approx. 3x the height of the bulb)
2. Add 1.5 heaping teaspoons of Bulb-Tone to each hole
3. Place the bulb in the hole, pointy side up (or root side down for corms and tubers)
4. Cover it firmly with soil and a layer of mulch if desired (Add gravel or ground seashells on top to help deter squirrels if needed)
5. Water thoroughly after planting
