Greenhouse bulbs that have now finished their flowering ; but which still have green leaves ; should be fed. Hippeastrums (amaryllis, pictured), cape cowslip (lachenalias) and freesias are included here. Give a fortnightly dose of liquid tomato feed ; it will build up the bulbs as they go into their summer rest. When the leaves are mostly brown, or dry, stop the feeding.
