The Red-Hot Bulb Collection
provides gorgeous red flowers for your garden or bouquets from early summer to
the first frost. Beginning with bright Red Tiger Lilies in early summer these
tall varieties look great in pots or tucked in among the dahlias in this
collection. Babylon Red Dinner Plate
Dahlias has crimson red blooms up to 8” wide and grows to be 44-48” tall and will bloom mid-summer to
frost. For the backbone of this
collection we recommend planting Traderhorn Gladiolus. It will grow 48-60” tall and produces crimson
red flowers accented with white throats mid-summer to frost. Whether
you decide to plant these together in a garden, or in a collection of pots the
Red-Hot Collection delivers a powerful punch of drama. The nerine lilies, gladiolus and dahlias are sensitive to cold and
should be dug for storage over the winter in cooler climates. Re-set tender
bulbs in spring after the threat of frost.
Our Red Hot Bulb Collection is roughly 3' x 4' and contains 23 plants:
1. 'Traderhorn' Gladiolus - 15 plants
2. 'Red' Tiger Lily - 3 plants
3. 'Red' Nerine Lily - 2 plants
4. 'Babylon Red' Dinner Plate Dahlia - 3 plants
*Not all plants will be in bloom at the same time, as depicted on the illustration. Plants are subject to change due to availability. If we make substitutions, we feature plants with similar attributes suitable to the garden/collection design.
