Winter Flowering Bulbs
65 products
Planting winter-flowering bulbs in UK gardens offers crucial support for wildlife during the coldest months. Snowdrops (Galanthus), winter aconites (Eranthis), and early crocuses provide rare nectar sources for queen bumblebees emerging on mild days, while their pollen sustains solitary bees. Cyclamen coum brightens shady spots, attracting early insects. Iris reticulata and dwarf daffodils extend the flowering season, bridging the gap between winter and spring. These hardy bulbs also create shelter for minibeasts and foraging opportunities for birds. By planting winter-flowering varieties, gardeners ensure pollinators and other wildlife have food when resources are scarcest, boosting survival rates in the harshest season.
