Garden Guide Bulbs for Cut Flowers

You may want to grow some summer bulbs - particularly dahlias, callas, lilies, gladioli, and anemone coronaria - primarily for cutting. A separate bed, or a section of your vegetable garden, is often the best solution for growing large quantities of these bulbs. If good drainage is a problem, make a raised bed. Follow the same recommendations for spacing and depth as you would for using them in the border.
