We enjoyed reading by the fireplace and also took the time to explore the neighborhood. The past year was a hectic one, with a lot happening both personally and professionally. Especially the move to the Achterhoek region in the summer, immediately followed by the shipping weeks, was challenging in terms of organization and worries.

Wanneer is het beste moment om vaste planten te planten? - Clay & Roots

When is the best time to plant perennials?

Plants can be planted all year round and will usually do well. However, autumn is by far the best time of year to plant perennials in the garden. It is easier to get the plant to grow well because there are several advantages in autumn. The plant is dormant, the soil is still warm from the summer, and because it rains a lot in October and November, you don't need to water it.

How to plant tuberous roots in your garden

Do you want to plant land plants, bare roots, or root tubers in your garden? Read exactly how to do it here!

We ship our land plants as root tubers, also known as bare roots. These are the plants as they are harvested from the field. These plants are grown in the open ground instead of in a pot. For some plants, such as peonies, this is the best way to grow a strong plant and to plant it in your garden. In this blog, you can read exactly how to plant a land plant or root tuber, such as our peonies.
