Top Quality, Top Size Bulbs Flower Bulb Specialists Since 1868
Dear Sir/Madam We are delighted to send you our new Autumn 2015 catalogue filled with over 700 spring flowering bulbs, including some 93 which are new or reintroductions. We trust that these will bring you inspiration in planning your garden displays for next year. Last year some customers were sadly not able to get all the bulbs they wanted owing to late orders and consequent shortages of supply. In order to guarantee availability for some varieties, we would urge you to please order as early as possible to avoid disappointment. Amongst our extensive selection of 25 different varieties of Hyacinths to be found on pages 38 & 39, we are excited to be offering the brand new variety Yellow Stone, which is a glorious and unusual lemon-yellow. We recently saw it in flower on a visit to the grower in Holland and we could not recommend it more highly.
Our large selection of Crocuses on pages 34 & 35 includes Imperati de Jager, named after the founder of the company, Piet de Jager, who introduced this fine variety. It has lovely delicate fragrant flowers: sealavender on the inside, a yellow centre, and outer petals amber-yellow with narrow dark purple feathers. This variety is very scarce indeed.
We have increased our range of everpopular Alliums, with 27 varieties from which to choose on pages 44 - 47. These include two new varieties: the most attractive deep purple Miami, and the unusual Red Mohican, which would look wonderful with old favourites such as Purple Sensation and the gloriously delicate Graceful Beauty.
The front cover of this catalogue features another fine painting which we have specially commissioned by the up-and-coming botanical artist, Theresa Smith DipSBA (Dist) AssocSBA. Again we can offer a small number of signed and numbered A3 Limited Edition prints, produced on museum grade acid free paper using light fast inks.
2016 marks the 300th anniversary of the birth of Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown, the father of English landscape architecture. Capability Brown is best remembered for sweeping designs on an impressive scale: he not only created gardens and parkland, but also planted woods and built farms linked by carriage drives, or `ridings’. His influence on landscape gardening and architecture has been immense, both here and abroad. To mark this milestone there will be a Capability Brown Festival, with plans to open up many of the 250-plus sites linked to Brown - some currently
inaccessible to the public - and to develop activities, exhibitions, walks and tours celebrating his distinctive work (details can be found at www.capabilitybrown.org). We hope to play an active part by helping towards the reestablishment, in some of these landscapes, of the native bulbs which Capability would have used. These include: Anemone Nemerosa, Fritillaria Meleagris, Galanthus Nivalis, Hyacinthoides non-scripta (the true English Bluebell), Narcissus Lobularis pseudonarcissus (the Lent Lily), Narcissus Obvallaris (the Tenby Daffodil), Tulip Sylvestris and Ornithogalum umbellatum (the Star of Bethlehem).

De Jager was proud to once again be involved in the Greenfingers Charity Re-Leaf Day. Thanks to the kind participation of generous QVC customers, we raised the magnificent sum of £5,500 for this most worthwhile cause. Greenfingers is a small national charity dedicated to supporting children’s hospices around the UK by creating inspired gardens for them to enjoy. The charity builds beautiful, well-designed outdoor spaces for the children to use, together with family and friends, either for play and fun, or rest and relaxation. To date Greenfingers has created 44 gardens in hospices around the country, and are planning to build a further 10.
In this catalogue, you will find that the bulbs that have achieved the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit have again been highlighted. These bulbs have been selected by the RHS for rigorous independent trials in ordinary UK gardens, which means that those awarded the AGM can give home gardeners confidence in their reliability, performance and disease resistance. We have also marked those varieties recommended by the RHS as nectar and pollen providers for bees, and the many other types of pollinating insects. The plants were chosen using the extensive experience, archives and records of RHS entomologists, beekeepers and gardeners. We are delighted to introduce our new look website www.dejager.co.uk, which has been redesigned to provide an even more user-friendly experience, with improved navigation and compatibility with mobile devices. Only the highest quality images are used, together with lots of information on all our available products, and the latest news and gardening tips. We also continue to offer an online 10% discount for all retail web orders; just enter the voucher code WEB10 during the checkout process.
We were honoured to be invited by Ambassador Laetitia van den Assum of the Netherlands to attend the unveiling ceremony, at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, of the flower mosaic Flowers of Liberty, which commemorates the liberation of the Netherlands in 1945 by British and Allied forces. This moving occasion was further enhanced by the introduction of the new commemorative tulip, Liberation. We are hoping to be able to offer a limited number of this special and significant tulip; should you be interested please contact us for further details.
We continue to engage with our growing online community and do please follow us on:

P. de Jager & Sons Limited have been selling top quality, top size bulbs for over 147 years. We cannot overemphasise the importance of size. Top size bulbs really do make a huge difference both in terms of flowering and naturalisation. Smaller size bulbs will be less expensive but the results will be very noticeably inferior. In order to illustrate the contrast in size, we have photographed a de Jager Amaryllis bulb beside one purchased from a garden centre. You can see the difference! All de Jager top bulb sizes are published in our catalogues. 37

BULBS FOR INDOOR FLOWERING FORCING BULBS The bulbs on the next two pages are ideal for indoor planting. Once planted the pots need to be put in a cool, dark place, keeping the soil moist. Forcing will take between 12 and 16 weeks or when the shoots are 2’’ to 3’’ high. At this stage the pots should be brought out of cold storage into a cool unheated room. Turn the pots daily in order to keep the stems straight and strong. When the foliage and buds are well developed move the pots to a bright sunny position. This 2nd stage takes between 3 to 4 weeks.
CROCUS - LARGE-FLOWERING VARIETIES The large Dutch varieties are best for forcing. Remembrance is an all-time favourite but all varieties on page 37 can be forced. Pot as above approximately 1’’ below the soil. These bulbs require about 12 weeks in cold storage. C2245

PREPARED CHRISTMAS HYACINTHS These hyacinths are specially prepared for early forcing and for bowl and pot culture. When potting leave the tip of the bulb above soil level. Hyacinths need approximately 10 to 12 weeks in cold storage. They can also be forced in water sitting the bulb above water level so that the base of the bulb just touches the water, then place in the dark until the shoots are 2’’ to 3’’ high. Despatched from early September onwards when they are fully ready. H2855

THE LURE OF THE LITTLE Most gardeners are familiar with the more common small bulbs such as Croci, Snowdrops, Muscari, Scillas, etc., but there are many delightful small-flowering bulbs which are overlooked. We suggest miniature Narcissi, Species Tulips, Chiondoxa, Eranthis, Fritillaria Meleagris and Iris Reticulata.

PICTORIAL MEADOWS MIXTURES These Meadow Mixtures are carefully blended seed mixes of native and non-native hardy annuals designed to provide high quality and cost-effective flowering displays. They have been developed following several years of intensive trials at the University of Sheffield. Unlike other mixes that are available, they will flower and provide visual interest over an extremely long period of time (from summer through to late autumn). They inject drama into large-scale commercial landscapes and create sparkling, complex and intricate pictures in the very smallest of spaces. They provide a colourful, wildlife-friendly replacement for mown grass; they can be sown formally in beds or to provide colour between shrubs, trees and perennials. Leeds City Council included a meadow mixture in their magnificent Gold Medal winning garden at the Chelsea Flower Show 2010 and these mixtures have been used extensively in the Olympic Park. Sow these annual seed mixes at a rate of 2-3g per square metre in the spring – March, April, May - and they will produce superb colour displays within 8 weeks or so of sowing. Unlike other annual meadow mixtures, these mixtures are formulated to produce a succession of flowering species. SD181
Blue Wave Mix
The Blue Wave mix is designed to reflect the shimmering waters of the Olympic aqua centre. Different shades of blue combine and blend as the flowers appear at varying times during the season, creating a continuous long-flowering display. Main species include: Cornflower, Blue Salvia, Larkspur and Viper’s Bugloss. FH: up to 1m (39’’).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q. Is there any grass seed content? A. There is no grass content to the mixes. Don’t mix with grass as it will kill off the flowers. Q. Can I just scatter the flowers over existing grass to create a meadow effect? A. Unfortunately not - the seeds have to be sown on bare soil. Q. Will the annual mixes self-seed? A. Only some of the species in the annual mixes will. To get the same effect you have to resow each year. Q. Will birds eat the seed ? A. No, they are too small for them to notice.
Q. Will the mixes work in Sandy/Chalky/Clay soil ? A. Yes. They will work on all types of soil but the better the soil the better the result. Q. Do I need to water the seeds if it doesn’t rain once I’ve sown them ? A. No. There is usually enough rain eventually and if you overwater they could rot before they germinate. Q. Will the mixes work in shady areas? A. Yes, but the mixes do need sunshine at some point during the day. Q. How long will the seed keep if I don’t use it all? A. Usually for several years - keep stored in a cool dry place.

Please order early to ensure you obtain the varieties you require. DEPTH TO PLANT Failures with bulbs are most frequently due to their having been planted too deep or too shallow. A good general rule to follow is to cover the bulb with soil one and a half to twice its own depth, measuring the bulb from the base to the shoulder. Thus a bulb measuring two inches from the base to the shoulder should be covered with 3-4 inches of soil. Always on arrival unpack bulbs, leaving bags open so air can circulate until planting.
