As a long, hot summer gives way to the gentle warmth of late season blooms, autumn invites us to look ahead. This golden planting window is your opportunity to set the stage for a spectacular spring 2027. Whether you're planning to establish drift after drift of spring bulbs across large borders or simply want a burst of early colour in your favourite patio pots, we’re here to help you get ahead with our Spring Bulb Bonanza Extended Weekend Event from Friday 28th August – Monday 31st August 2026.
What To Expect:
Enjoy 25% off our entire range of spring-flowering bulbs.
- Expert Partner Advice: Learn the art of "Bulb Lasagne" (layering bulbs for a continuous display from February through until May) and get advice on soil prep - especially timely as we welcome early autumn rains to soften the ground!
- Inspiration: Take a stroll past our glorious 80m Herbaceous Border or admire the seasonal interest in our Water Garden nearby in Longstock Park, and pick up planting combinations you can recreate at home. (The Water Garden is open for visits - more details about opening times and admission can be found on our visitor information page)
- Family & Pet Friendly Gardening: Ask our team about non-toxic bulb options safe for curious pets and ideal for getting young gardeners planting this autumn.
