Late Summer Bulb Gallery:
Site Map
for access to Bulb, Rhizome or Tuber Plant Description pages and Comparison pages with photo content (o)
This gallery contains the bulbs, rhizomes or tubers from their Late Summer Bulbs Catalogue, that are despatched by R.V. Roger Ltd between July and September for planting by you in your garden in that time period.
Some of the Bulb Names in the following list have '- tender' appended.
These are from the Winter Growing Bulbs subsection of the Late Summer Bulbs section from R.V. Roger - "Most of the species originate from the winter rainfall areas of southern Africa. They should not be considered as hardy although there are many instances of them over-wintering in sheltered well drained situations. By far the safest way is to grow them indoors in pots. The range of colours and fragrances is breathtaking, they add a real cheer to the early part of the year."
Some of the Bulb Names in the following list have - autumn appended.
These are from the Autumn Flowering Bulbs subsection of the Late Summer Bulbs section from R.V. Roger - "This much overlooked group of bulbs deserve to be planted much more often. They are seldom offered in any variety because of their short dormant season."
Coblands Nurseries:-
Coblands Nurseries were founded in 1963 growing a wide range of shrubs, herbaceous, grasses, ferns and trees in the ‘coblands’ of Kent. The production nursery extends to over 120 acres on a number of sites in and around Tonbridge, growing approximately a million plants at any one time.
www.best4plants.co.uk now brings this wealth of knowledge and expertise to the general public as well as the trade.
R. V. Roger Ltd, The Nurseries, Malton Road (A169), Pickering, North Yorkshire, YO18 7JW - Tel:(01751)472226 - Fax:(01751)476749 is a traditional third-generation family-run nursery, with the emphasis on plant quality and first-class customer service. The range of field-grown fruit trees grown is one of the best in the country, including many traditional varieties, which are becoming quite rare. They also grow over 40,000 roses in nearly 300 varieties. The rose field is usually in flower from the middle of July until the autumn, when you are welcome to visit and walk through the field.

Why do so few bulb nurseries who supply directly to garden owners in the UK and so few garden owners in the UK donate the use of their bulb photos of the flower, foliage, form or bulblet / seedpod to this website? Where else can you compare plants by flower colour, foliage colour, form or bulblet / seedpod shape/colour with their soil type, soil moisture, sun aspect and height? . |
