Bulb planter - Automatic - Galvanized - With size indicator

Planting flower bulbs? Make gardening easier with this Talen Tools bulb planter. With this bulb planter, you no longer need to dig a hole in the ground yourself. The garden soil that the bulb planter picks up is released by pressing the handle on the side. To extend its lifespan, the steel of this bulb planter is galvanised. This makes the material more resistant to rust. You can reduce the risk of rust yourself by cleaning and drying the bulb planter thoroughly after use.

How deep should you plant flower bulbs?
A handy feature of this bulb planter from Talen Tools is the measurement indicator on the side. With this planter, you can plant to a depth of about 10 centimetres. Do you need to plant deeper? Then repeat the same digging motion with this bulb planter. The larger the flower bulb, the deeper you normally plant it. For a small flower bulb with a diameter of approximately 2.5 to 5 centimetres, plant to a depth of 7 to 10 centimetres. Flower bulbs with a diameter of 5 centimetres or more should be planted deeper in the ground. As a rule of thumb, plant them at a depth of three times the height of the flower bulb. This will protect the bulb from frost and give it enough space to root firmly. Planting too deep or too shallow increases the chance of a flower that mainly produces leaves but no flowers.

When should I plant my flower bulbs?
Flowers that bloom in spring are best planted in the ground in the autumn months. It is best to plant these flower bulbs before the first frost occurs. Spring-flowering bulbs include daffodils, snowdrops, crocuses and narcissi. Flowers that mainly bloom in summer or late summer should be planted in spring. Anemones, gladioli and begonias are examples of summer flowers. These summer bloomers should be planted after the last frost. When planting flower bulbs, ensure that the garden soil has a loose structure and mix it with potting soil if necessary. After planting, water the bulbs sufficiently so that they grow well.
