The 6 Best Bulbs to Plant for Summer Blooms

While daffodils and tulips are great spring-blooming bulbs, it’s time to start thinking ahead of what bulbs to plant now, in the spring, for the ultimate summer blooms! Before you start planting bulbs around your property, you should consider where they will be planted in advance.

Well-drained soil is crucial for bulbs to grow, so avoid planting them in bogged areas where they are likely to rot. Bulbs are also well-suited for planting containers, making them great for patios and other outdoor spaces!
