Freesias are delicate flowers, perfect for cutting. Their sweet scent is extremely fragrant and popular, which is often infused into lotions and perfumes. Freesias are visually stunning, blooming in abundant clusters with up to eight trumpet-shaped, upward-pointing blossoms on leafless stems. Despite popular belief, they are easy to grow. These freesias produce double blooms and come in a mixture of bold colors. Plant about 16 bulbs per square foot. They look best grouped together. Extend the blooming season in a cut garden by planting a few bi-weekly, as they bloom about 10-12 weeks after planting. They can also be grown in pots indoors. In USDA zones cooler than 9, the corms will not survive the winter and should be dug up, should you want to over winter them.
