November
Written by Michelle Jenkins of Florian’s Botanical
This November grow guide offers practical advice on forcing bulbs for Christmas, planting and caring for winter-flowering bulbs in the greenhouse, bringing colour and fragrance to your home through the festive season. Focusing on favourites like paperwhites, amaryllis, and hyacinths, it provides clear guidance on planting, watering, and positioning for successful winter blooms.
