Bulb Lasagna Question

Ashlie Neevel
10 years ago

Hi

I have recently heard about bulb lasagna (layering) and I have a question if this would work out or not.

My idea is to plant in the fall April-May blooming Tulips and above them plant March-April blooming Daffodils which I know isnt a problem but what I wish to plant afterwards is where the question comes in.

I would like to plant tuberous begonias in May right in the ground without pre-starting them elsewhere (no space to do so) and without removing the tulip or daffodil bulbs. Would it be possible to plant these tubers in May as the Tulips are dying off or would the foliage get in the way?

These would be mass planted bulbs and tubers. 180 Tulips (9 per sq ft), 140 Daffodils (7 per sq ft) and then in may from what I gather I would need to plant 20 begonias (begonia picotee bridesmaids) since they have a spread of a foot. In case you haven't guessed by now its a 20 sq ft area (irregular shape)
