Bee Buffet Royal Appetizer - ORG

The name says it all: generous. Not ten bulbs, not fifty, but one hundred and twenty. This pack is designed for those who want to think big and get an early start. Four varieties of crocuses and daffodils, brought together in a mix that brings the garden to life as early as February and March. For the bees that are just becoming active at that time, this is a first-class welcome.

Four varieties for varied early flowering

The Ruby Giant leads the way – deep purple, large and early, sometimes flowering as early as January. The striped King of the Striped adds character. The snow-white Jeanne d’Arc provides a fresh white contrast. And the Tete-a-Tete, the early yellow daffodil, blooms just a little later and extends the package beyond the crocus season. Together, they offer a flowering period stretching from February right through to April – abundant, cheerful and varied.

For bees at the very earliest moment

This isn’t just any old bee mix – it’s an aperitif. The first drops of nectar of the year, right at the moment when bees and bumblebees are just becoming active and are searching hardest for food. One hundred and twenty bulbs provide an enormous nectar-bearing area that attracts pollinators from far and wide. A garden with this pack is already buzzing whilst the rest of the world is barely awake.

Planting and naturalisation

Plant the bulbs in autumn – crocuses 8 cm deep, Tete-a-Tete 10 cm deep. Scatter them loosely for the most natural effect. They will naturalise on their own and return every year, gradually spreading out. They thrive best in a well-drained, sunny to semi-shaded spot. Organically grown, certified NL-BIO-01.
