Freesia
I have found 50 freesias tucked away in a cupboard. When and how deep should I plant them, if you think they are any good.
It is good to be back

Not sure about freesias, but in January I found some shrivelled hyacinth bulbs in my garage. I planted them in the garden, then it rained incessantly, but hey presto, they are flowering. So I would certainly plant them, you never know. Good luck x nan

Plant them about the depth of the bulb, ie if the bulb is 1cm long plant it with 1cm of soil over the top of it. A little bit deeper would do no harm.

a general rule of thumb is plant to 2 to 2 and half times the size of the bulb

Thank you all. I will go ahead and plant them.
