Spring flowing bulbs in containers, pots and window boxes provide instant impact at the start of spring. By combining two, three or more bulbs that flower at different times can lengthen the period of time you have colour for. Planting in layer's can also generate longer lasting displays.

The classic design approache is using 3 elements .
In a larger and deeper patio container you can add further layers of larger daffodils and tulips underneath to have flowering bulbs in bloom throughout the spring.
Planting your bulbs in a container is an easy way to create a lot of colour in the spring for your garden. Having several pots or containers on a patio can give your garden that uplift it needs in the spring. If you have any pets or know you have lots of wild animals in your garden, then in autumn and winter place mesh over the top of your container as this will stop your bulbs from being dug up. It is important to use a container with drainage holes, and you can also use the layering method talked about above to create that longer lasting flowering period.
