Add 4" of Roger's Potting Soil for the first level of bulbs. Sprinkle 2 tbsp. of Bulb Booster bulb food on top of each layer before setting bulbs in place. Step Two:   Place a maximum of 13 large bulbs (daffodils, *hyacinths and/or *tulips) "point up" on this first layer and cover with 2" of Roger's Potting Soil to make the second layer. Sprinkle with Bulb Booster. Step Three:   Place up to 20 smaller bulbs (crocus, dwarf narcissus, muscari and/or scilla) "point up" on this second layer and cover with 2" of Roger's Potting Soil to make the third and final top layer. Step Four:   Plant 1-2 color packs of pansies or violas (6-12 individual plants), being careful not to disturb any of your bulbs. Then, water thoroughly using low pressure. Slowly apply water over and over until the soil is thoroughly saturated. Step Five:   Place pot in bright, filtered light with 1/2 sun and 1/2 shade until the first bulb foliage sprouts. Then, move pot to where it receives either full sun or morning sun and afternoon shade. Water thoroughly once a week, twice if day temperatures are high or dry winds prevail, or plants appear to need more. * Tulips and Hyacinths must be chilled for 8 weeks beginning early October. After chilling, plant bulbs immediately. If you plant to use Tulips or Hyacinths in your layered bulb garden, you must do all your planting after 8 weeks of chilling.
