Spring Flower Bulbs

Best online selection of spring bulbs

When the days stretch a little longer and we start to hear the birdsong again, we gardeners get anxious for spring. Just like the natural world around us, we anticipate spring and all its busyness and beauty. Most people recognize spring as the time to start seeds, and it is. But if you’re not also planting spring bulbs during this time then you’re missing out on an opportunity to have striking summer flowers! Start your summer garden early with our 200 easy-to-grow spring-planted bulbs.

Popular spring-planted flower bulb varieties

For colorful flowers all season long, choose a selection of early, mid, and late-season bloomers. Plant anemone bulbs in late winter for early summer color, plant gladiolus just before your average last frost for midsummer blooms, and wait to plant dahlia tubers until several weeks after the last frost for summer flowers that bloom until the first fall frost. Eden Brothers' collection of spring-planted flower bulbs are sourced from the freshest suppliers in Holland, France, and Israel—so you can be certain that you’re getting the highest-quality bulbs available stateside.

Why plant spring bulbs in your own garden?

Plant spring perennial bulbs once for years of dependable blooms. Spring bulbs are versatile and forgiving plants—grow them in containers or in the field, and with very little maintenance on your end, they’ll reward you with exquisitely beautiful blooms and striking foliage.

The quickest way to a productive summer garden is through spring-planted bulbs. Order your favorite spring bulbs today, and we’ll ship them to your doorstep at the appropriate time to plant in your growing zone. While each species will differ slightly in its planting instructions (reference Gardening 101 for details), a general rule to live by is to plant each bulb three times as deep as the bulb is tall. You can dig a small hole for each individual bulb, or you can dig a larger hole or trench to plant clusters of bulbs for swathes of color. It all really comes down to personal preference—any way you choose to plant spring bulbs will guarantee brilliant displays of color.

Gardeners growing in temperate zones can grow most of these spring-planted bulbs as perennials, especially with an added layer of mulch for protection over winter. Gardeners in colder climates can still enjoy these beautiful blooms and reap all the rewards of spring-planted blooms, but you’ll want to dig up your bulbs at the beginning of fall and replant (or plant new bulbs) each spring.

Spring flower bulbs serve many purposes

Drought-tolerant and deer-resistant bulbs add variety to the flower garden. Or maybe you're looking for an isolated color or a mix? We have over 100 dahlia tubers alone, and a generous selection of all the cut flower staples—anemones, gladiolus, as well as classic landscaping bulbs including exotic caladium bulbs and the tropical elephant ear. 

Maybe you’re not looking for a cutting garden, but for a pollinator strip or a deer and rabbit-resistant flower patch. Maybe you need a drought-tolerant plant to use as a groundcover or fast-growing, low-maintenance landscaping plant. Whatever your flower preferences, we have the spring-planted bulb to meet your needs.

It’s never too early to start planning next year’s garden—order your spring bulbs today so you’re guaranteed the varieties you want! We can’t wait for you to start planting the garden of your dreams.
