Planting and care

Plant your incarvillea roots upright, with the wide part to which several fleshy roots are attached at the top. The top of your bulb should be covered with at least 7 cm (3 in) of soil. This will prevent your flowering plant from being snapped off at the collar by the first strong gust of wind. In colder regions, heavily mulch your well-drained and non-humid soil in winter. In wetter areas, we recommend removing your bulbs in October and replanting them in early April. Useful summer bulbs. Bulbs from A to Z. Incarvillea is a plant that repels moles in the garden, with beautiful pink or white flowers, suitable for pots. The white variety, Incarvillea Snowtop, is mole-repellent. Very large roots at a low price.
