The more , the better ; work deep into the soil . Prepare beds to an 18 inch deep for perennials . This will seem like a frightful amount of piece of work now , but will greatly pay off by and by . Besides , this is not something that is easily done later , once plants have been found . How - to : Planting BulbsPlant bulbsat a depth that is three times their top , and at least 1 - 1/2 electric light - widths apart . knead a small os repast fertiliser into the bottom of your yap , and then site the electric light upright in the hole . The more pointed end is almost always the top . If you have problem telling which is the top , look for grounds of where a base or ascendant were last year . If in doubt , plant them sidewise .

If growing more than one industrial plant in a container , check that that all have similar cultural prerequisite . Choose a container that is deep and large enough to give up root development and growth as well as relative balance between the amply developed works and the container . imbed large containers in the office you intend them to continue . All containers should have drainage holes . A interlock screen , break clay pot pieces(crock ) or a paper coffee filter placed over the hole will keep soil from wash off out .
