Top Quality, Top Size BulbsFlower Bulb Specialists Since 1868

Towards the latter part of this Autumn season we unfortunately experienced a shortage of some bulbs due to climatic conditions, and sadly were unable to meet some customers’ requirements. In order to guarantee your desired plantings please, please order as early as possible to avoid disappointment!

Dear Sir/Madam

We are delighted to send you our Spring 2016 catalogue, featuring over 425 bulbs. We offer one of the UK’s most comprehensive selections of top quality, top size bulbs - including 80 beautiful varieties of Dahlia and over 60 excellent Lilies from which to choose.

This catalogue includes 65 varieties which are either new or valuable reintroductions, and amongst them we are delighted to introduce two new outdoor Amaryllis: Hippeastrum

Sonatini Swan Lake and Hippeastrum Sonatini Veneto (pages 24 & 25). These hardy versions of an ever-popular indoor plant are now available to add perennial interest to your garden.

Our Fresh Cut Flower Bouquets offer fantastic quality and value to suit all pockets and occasions. Each of our 9 arrangements comes in 3 different sizes, and we now feature 3 brand new bouquets: Pastel Rose, Tulip Trio and Pure White Hydrangea. Do please visit www.dejagerfreshflowers.co.uk to order your wonderful fresh flowers.

The Pictorial Meadows Annual Seed Mixes have proved extremely popular, and we are thrilled to now be able to offer a quartet of their brand new Perennial Seed Mixes, with which you can create the look of a truly colourful traditional wild flower meadow. These mixes are the result of extensive research and are illustrated on pages 42 & 43.

We also have much pleasure in enclosing the new 2016 Young Plant catalogue, offering an attractive range of special and different premium young plants. The de Jager Top Quality, Top Size Young Plants have proved overwhelmingly popular. Our growing partner, the only young plant grower who holds a Royal Warrant, has achieved acclaimed quality using the exclusive Easicell system, which ensures stronger root growth and leads to healthier and more robust plants.

Please note that your requirements should reach us by the end of February, so that your young plants may be grown to the optimum size for delivery and planting at the beginning of May.

We were happy to be able to support the Garden House School Summer Fair, held in the magnificent grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, by donating the prizes for their gardening competition. The photograph is of two people from our company - the taller one being Kevin Fletcher who normally works in the warehouse. This just goes to show that de Jager will go to extraordinary lengths to please their customers!

We continue to be actively involved with the Greenfingers Charity, which is a small national charity dedicated to supporting children’s hospices around the UK by creating inspired gardens for them to enjoy. The charity builds beautiful, well-designed outdoor spaces for the children to use, together with family and friends, either for play and fun, or rest and relaxation. In July 2015 they launched the Greenfingers ‘A Million Moments’ Appeal which aims to raise £1 million over the next 3 years. It is hoped that at least 5,000 children and their families will benefit from spending time outdoors as a result of this fundraising effort, with an estimated 15 new gardens being created under the umbrella of the appeal. To date Greenfingers has created 49 gardens in hospices around the country, and should you wish to support this most worthwhile charity please visit www.greenfingerscharity.org to learn more.

As many of you may know de Jager has been selling bulbs and young plants on the TV shopping channel QVC for the

past 6 years, together with their resident gardening expert Richard Jackson. Richard’s website www.richardjacksonsgarden.co.uk offers a wealth of news, advice and ideas, and has recently won the prestigious Garden Media Guild’s award for Website of the Year 2015.

The bulbs that have achieved the Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit have again been highlighted in this catalogue. These bulbs have been selected by the RHS for rigorous independent trials in ordinary UK gardens, which means that

those awarded the AGM can give home gardeners confidence in their reliability, performance and disease resistance. We have also marked those varieties recommended by the RHS as important nectar and pollen providers for bees and many other pollinating insects. The plants were chosen using the extensive experience and records of RHS entomologists, beekeepers and gardeners countrywide.

DAHLIAS - SET THE TONE IN MID-SUMMERDahlias are much prized for cutting and they are very decorative in the garden. The Dahlias we offer are in the form of tubers, and from early March onwards TOP QUALITY FIELD-GROWN TUBERS will be despatched in polythene bags, in which they may be safely kept until planting time, stored in a cool place. Dahlias thrive in rich soil, and an application of well rotted manure is most beneficial. During dry weather water liberally. Plant 75-90 cm (30-36”) apart each way. Protect from slugs.

These produce a profusion of tall flowers with striking foliage.SINGLE DARK LEAF DAHLIAS

PICTORIAL MEADOWS MIXTURESThese Meadow Mixtures are carefully blended seed mixes of native and non-native hardy species, designed to provide high quality flowering displays. They have been developed following several years of intensive trials at the University of Sheffield. Unlike other mixes that are available, they will flower and provide visual interest over an extremely long period of time (from summer through to late autumn) and are formulated to produce a succession of flowering species.

They inject drama into large-scale commercial landscapes and create sparkling, complex and intricate pictures in the very smallest of spaces. They provide a colourful, wildlife-friendly replacement for mown grass; they can be sown formally in beds or to provide colour between shrubs, trees and perennials. Leeds City Council included a meadow mixture in their magnificent Gold Medal winning garden at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2010, and these mixtures have been used extensively in the Olympic Park.

Sow the Annual seed mixes at a rate of 2-3g per square metre in the spring - March, April or May - and they will produce superb colour displays within 8 weeks or so of sowing. The Perennial seed mixes all contain over 20 species of plants, and should be sown at a rate of 2g per square metre (except Purple Haze – 3g per sq. m.) from early autumn to late spring, with October/November being the best for medium to large scale plantings. Once established the meadow can be managed simply with an annual cut in late February.

Q. Is there any grass seed content?A. There is no grass content to the mixes. Don’t mix with grass as it will kill off the flowers.

Q. Can I just scatter the flowers over existing grass to create a meadow effect?A. Unfortunately not - the seeds have to be sown on bare soil.

Q. Will the annual mixes self-seed? A. Only some of the species in the annual mixes will. To get the same effect you have to resow each year.

Q. Will birds eat the seed ? A. No, they are too small for them to notice.

Q. Will the mixes work in Sandy/Chalky/Clay soil ? A. Yes. They will work on all types of soil, but for these mixes, the better the soil the better the result.

Q. Do I need to water the seeds if it doesn’t rain once I’ve sown them ? A. For annuals no there is usually enough rain eventually and if you over-water they could rot before they germinate. However, if there is prolonged drought after you have sown then you could try watering once a week. Perennials are more demanding and we recommend irrigation in Spring.

Q. Will the mixes work in shady areas? A. Yes, but the mixes do need sunshine at some point during the day.

Q. Can I combine the annual and perennial seed mixes? A. We don’t recommend this, as each seed mix is carefully formulated to produce a specific result.

Q. How long will the seed keep if I don’t use it all? A. Usually for several years - keep stored in a cool dry place.

INDEX

PLANTING DEPTHFailures with bulbs are most frequently due to their having been planted too deep or too shallow. A good general rule to follow is to cover the bulb with soil one and a half to twice its own depth, measuring the bulb from the base to the shoulder. Thus a bulb measuring 2 inches from the base to the shoulder should be covered with 3-4 inches of soil. Always unpack bulbs on arrival and leave bags open so air can circulate until planting.

Please order early to ensure you obtain the varieties you require.
