Can I layer bulbs and seeds in containers?

I am planning my planters for next year, which I want to fill with a profusion of colour from spring to late summer.

I have tulip bulbs to start off but want to know if I can layer summer flowering seeds over the top of them. The seeds I have are:

Stocks


Cosmea Rose Bonbon


Linaria Fairy Bouquet


Linum Charmer


Eschscholzia Bridal Bouquet


Which of these would be most suited to being planted over tulips please? Or would I be best planting the summer flowering seeds in a separate planter from the tulips?

Thanks in advance

 

Hi to be honest best to stick to the classic stuff like pansies polyanthus and forget me nots they all grow well together with spring bulbs .

The seeds you have mentioned I think all would rather be sown in the spring

I tend to swap pots and troughs about with the season

Thanks Spruce.

I've already got enough seeds, just need to know what to put where

 

i sow & grow on annuals that i later plant in the tops of the same pots that my spring bulb are in, once the bulbs foliage has died down i take off the top few inchs of soil & plant my annuals with a top dressing of good fertile fresh compost...never had any problems & always get a good show
