Freesia 'Double Mixture' (Ships in Spring)

Freesia

Freesia Double Mix is a fragrant, colorful blend of double-petaled freesia flowers in shades of purple, white, yellow, and pink. These elegant, bell-shaped blooms grow on slender, arching stems and are prized for their sweet scent, making them excellent for cut arrangements.

Reaching 12 to 18 inches tall, they thrive in full sun with well-drained soil and bloom from late spring to mid-summer. Hardy in USDA zones 9 to 10, they can be grown as annuals in cooler climates by lifting and storing the bulbs before winter. A perfect choice for containers, borders, and bouquets, adding both beauty and fragrance to any space.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Freesia 'Double Mixture' (Ships in Spring)

Planting: In USDA zones 3–8, plant corms in spring after the last frost. Soak them in lukewarm water for 30–60 minutes before planting to jumpstart growth. Set corms 2 inches deep and 2 to 4 inches apart, with the pointed end facing up. For best visual impact, plant in clusters rather than rows.
Location: Choose a sunny site—Freesia needs at least 6 hours of direct sun daily. In hot climates, light afternoon shade helps prolong bloom.
Soil: Well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH (6.0–7.0). Raised beds or containers with drainage holes are ideal if your soil retains too much moisture.
Watering: Water after planting and keep soil lightly moist during active growth. Avoid overwatering—soggy soil can cause rot. Once foliage yellows, reduce watering and allow the plant to go dormant.
Temperature: Hardy in zones 9–10. In cooler zones, treat as annuals or lift corms after foliage dies back and store them in a cool, dry place.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) when shoots emerge and again at bud formation. Avoid high-nitrogen feeds.
Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers. Let foliage die back naturally to nourish the corm for next season.
Propagation: Freesia multiplies by offsets. Lift and divide corms every 2–3 years after dormancy.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free. Watch for aphids and fungal issues in humid conditions—good air circulation helps.
