Nerine bowdenii

Nerines flowering today #nerine #nerinebowdenii #nerine-bowdenii

All of your nerines seem to be doing very well Richard. I’ve just had what I suspect will be my last one this year about to open its bud.

Thank you Angela - these do seem to be the last, although I’ve got one variety that hasn’t flowered this year and no buds in sight. But it did seem to struggle in the summer and lost its leaves. Hopefully will be better for next year 🤞🏼🤞🏼 @italydiva

It’s been a funny year for the garden with the unusually hot weather. Fingers crossed for next year Richard🤞

Repotted all my nerines today in new soil mix, along with a bigger terracotta pot. I’ve still gone with a shallow pot though. Pleased to see them all clumping up very well (originally three bulbs) and all of them have flowered every year for the last three-four years

Getting very familiar with their growing pattern now too. It’s perfectly normal for mine to start growing their foliage in February but they seem to have sped up this last week #nerine #nerinebowdenii #nerine-bowdenii #bowdenlily

They will be lovely ☺️

Thanks Sharon 🙏🏼😊 - I probably should have repotted them last year but by the time I remembered it was already late spring so didn’t want to disturb them @sharonhayden

And another.... this one is the straight species, Nerine bowdenii #nerine #nerine-bowdenii #bowdenlily

@richard.spicer.7906 I see you Have these covered, do you also plant them outside ?

The first #nerine bowdenii #bud about to open #pink 😮 - two other varieties on their way too 😁👏🏼 #nerine-bowdenii #bowdenlily

Brilliant! 😀

Lovely 😊

Do they flower right through until October Richard? They are lovely 🌸💕

Morning , can't wait to see that Rich 💗💗

Looks like it's part of the Agapanthus family very nice variation 👌

Oh I love them look forward to seeing it open 😊👍💕

Love the frilly petals on these 👌🏼💕 looking forward to them opening 👏🏼

Mine have been open a couple of weeks, they are always a nice surprise this time of year 🌸

Oh I neeeeedd some of these Rich 😍

Lovely!

Hi @rosiebug , yes they are usually one of the last bulbs to flower in the season and start to bloom from end of September through to end of Oct/mid November - I've got two varieties and looks like they still have about 2-3 weeks life still in the flowers. 😀 I have a third type which is a lot more tender and I think it flowers over winter. Fingers crossed!

Morning folks, hope everyone is enjoying Friday so far. I'm adding some missing items from my plant list today - of which there are a few 😳... Starting with these Nerines #nerine #nerine-bowdenii #bowdenlily

#bulbs planted in pots on 5th March. John Innes no. 3 based compost with a handful of extra hort grit and sand. 3 bulbs to a pot 🤓

This is my first attempt at growing them. Whilst researching more info on Nerines and how to plant the bulbs, I found out that you should plant them so that the necks of the bulbs are partly exposed above the soil, as they like to bake in the sun. I also concluded that they are similar to agapanthus in that they prefer to be overcrowded. So hopefully I won't need to do much with these other than an occasional feed and repotting every few years.

Hello Richard, my sister dug a clump of nerines up for me and also told me to leave the top of the bulb showing. Can't wait for them to flower😍

Hey Ann 👋🏼, that was a lovely present 😀 - they will put a cracking display on for you. Don't worry about if you crowd them in, seems to be fine with these. I probably could have added a couple more bulbs to my pot but only bought three. Never mind, they'll bulk up soon enough. Are you putting them in ground or pots? Either is fine just make sure it's very sunny. @thomasrat3

I have some of these to put in 👍👍

Rich thanks for this I reported my your way and my have shoots coming up @richard.spicer.7906 👏🏼😔👍🏼

Yay! 😁👍🏼 @tina
