Tuberose generally flower late in the summer, so it's a lovely addition when many varieties have finished blooming. Generally speaking, we would expect them to bloom 90-120 days after planting.

  • Find a nice sunny spot in your garden with good drainage - the sunnier the better! Dig in in some well rotted manure, and a sprinkling of our Bulb fert.
  • Loosen the soil to a depth of around 20cm, and plant your Bulb pointy side up, at around 4-5cm deep (The tuberose bulbs we sell are actually nice clumps of Bulbs, so you'll get a lovely display come late Summer!)
  • Once planted, give your Tuberose a generous watering- this will settle the soil, and give them the jump start they require. You should expect to see growth within a few weeks (colder areas will take longer)
  • Water fairly regularly during the growing season if the rain has evaded you (a decent watering once a week is much better than lighter drinks )
  • Tuberose plants are heavy feeders, so we recommend a side dressing once the leaves have appeared (the blooms will thank you for it!)
