🌱 Growing Information

How to Grow Jumbo Saffron Bulbs

Planting Depth: 4–6 inches
Bulb Spacing: 4–6 inches apart
Bloom Time: Fall (typically 6–10 weeks after planting)

Planting Tips:

Plant bulbs in late summer through early fall in well-drained soil. Choose a sunny location where water will not collect during winter. Water lightly after planting, then allow the bulbs to establish naturally. Harvest the bright red saffron threads from freshly opened flowers and allow the foliage to remain until it naturally dies back, helping the bulbs store energy for next year's bloom.
