Abstract

Bulbous plants play a significant role in enhancing the aesthetic appeal and biodiversity of landscapes. These plants with specialized underground structures offer a diverse range of colors, shapes, flowering times, and textures. This diversity can transform gardens into vibrant and visually appealing environments. The use of flower bulbs in landscapes provides numerous benefits. They offer seasonal interest, require low maintenance, and are adaptable to various environmental conditions. Bulbous plants can be utilized in different ways in the landscape: as tactful infillers, in mass drifts to create bold swaths of color, underplanted beneath plants that leaf out slowly in the spring, or between two plants to bridge the gap between leafing out, flowering, or reblooming periods. They can also be used as focal points for specific periods. Additionally, bulbous plants contribute to pollinator attraction, ecosystem diversity, and sustainable landscaping practices. This abstract highlights the importance of incorporating bulbous plants in landscape design to create beautiful, sustainable, and biodiverse landscapes that delight and inspire both homeowners and visitors.
