To determine the correct planting depth for your bulbs, you need to consider the specific type of bulb you are planting. Here's a general guide:
* General rule: Plant bulbs at a depth equal to two to three times the height of the bulb.
* Small bulbs: (e.g., crocus, grape hyacinth) should be planted 2-3 inches deep.
* Medium bulbs: (e.g., tulips, daffodils, hyacinths) should be planted 6-8 inches deep.
* Large bulbs: (e.g., lilies) should be planted 8-10 inches deep.
You can also find specific planting depth recommendations on the packaging of your bulbs or in gardening books and websites.
Remember:
* The soil should be well-drained.
* Plant bulbs with the pointy end facing upwards.
* After planting, water well.
Happy planting!
