Planting process  Flower Bulb

1. Prepare the garden bed using a garden fork or tiller to loosen the soil to a depth of 8 to 10 inches before applying bulbs.
2. Use 30% Cocopeat / 20% Vermicompost / 30% Soil / 20% Sand of good germination. And mix well.
3. When measuring from the base of the bulb, plant bulbs at least 5 to 6 inches deep.
4. Set the bulb in the hole with the pointed end. And that means digging deeper, loosening the soil and allowing drainage, or making raised beds.
