When to plant freesia

1. Planting Season

Planting freesia is usually done in spring or autumn, and there are two ways to plant it. One is the sowing method, which is recommended to be carried out in May and June; the other is the bulb division method, which is recommended to be carried out in August and September. Please note that it should not be done in the hot summer or cold winter, as it will hinder the normal growth of the plant.

However, the planting time is not fixed and should be changed according to local conditions. If the climate is relatively warm, then it can be postponed appropriately; if the area is relatively cold, you should choose a warmer time to do it.

2. Planting Method

1. Sowing method: Seeds are generally collected in May, and then sown in shallow pots, placed in a place without direct wind, and maintaining a certain humidity. The temperature most conducive to germination is around 20-22℃, and the temperature cannot be too low.

2. Bulb division method: When the plant is dormant, peel off the new bulbs, refrigerate them, and then plant them. If the new bulb is relatively large, it will bloom in the same year after planting. If it is a relatively small bulb, it will take about a year to cultivate before it can bloom.
