Bulb’up®: An Innovative Solution for Green Spaces

The gardening sector has seen a wave of innovations in recent years, and one standout product is Bulb’up®, dubbed "the garden that grows without you." This concept is straightforward: it involves covering 100% biodegradable plates filled with bulbs. After a few weeks of patience, beautiful flowers emerge, creating a lovely flowerbed with minimal effort 🌷. This clever and well-thought-out concept has truly charmed us, and we are excited to share it!

How Does It Work?

Planting flowers has never been easier with these plates. First, prepare the soil by weeding and aerating it. Next, simply place the Bulb’up® plate, pre-filled with bulbs, on your chosen area; it even works on mounds, so there's no need to dig too deeply. Cover the plate with potting soil, and ideally, you can add a fine mulch to reduce weeding later on. Lastly, remember to water as needed, and come spring, your flowerbed will begin to flourish: all you have to do is admire it 🌱!

The major advantage of this product is its ease of use: it’s child’s play, requiring no tools, and installation takes just a few minutes ✅ !

Now, one might wonder: does it really work? The answer is yes! The bulbs are carefully selected by a landscape designer. Planting should occur in the fall to ensure beautiful blooms in the spring (for Bulb’up, Tendre Printemps). The product is effective in all soil types and requires minimal sunlight ☀️!

An Eco-Friendly Innovation by a Young Entrepreneur!

We know that beautifying our gardens and balconies enhances biodiversity by attracting pollinators and small animals while improving air quality and retaining water. A simple act like planting flowers can contribute to environmental preservation! With Bulb’up®, bulb planting becomes easy, quick, and accessible to everyone. The selection of bulbs, performed by a landscape designer, ensures varied, harmonious, and resilient blooms. The plates are 100% biodegradable, made from cellulose, and completely dissolve in the soil. This offers an eco-friendly alternative to the plastic packaging still prevalent in bulb sales.

In terms of pricing, several variations of Bulb’up® plates are available, with prices ranging from €19.90 for the smallest model to €54.90. Considering the product's quality, its French manufacturing, and the time savings it offers, these prices are quite reasonable.

At the Coopérative, we have developed a genuine fondness ❤️ for this product. We appreciate its ingenuity—a simple concept that required thoughtful innovation! Additionally, we admire the entrepreneurial spirit of its creator, Théo Masson, a passionate and determined 20-year-old. He advocates for his project with conviction and adds a social dimension by incorporating part of the plate production into an ESAT in Normandy.

Who Is the Bulb’up® Solution For?

The Bulb’up® solution caters to both green space professionals and amateur gardeners.

For Green Space Professionals

The company is already collaborating with several municipalities (Rouen, Brentin, Le Trait…). The time savings for reflowering flowerbeds are a significant advantage for municipal green space services. When we talk about time savings, we mean it: the plates can be laid in under 5 minutes, with no tools required, delivering perfect results. The spacing between the bulbs is pre-calculated, leaving nothing to chance; just cover the plate with soil!

Professional gardeners can also utilize it for their reflowering projects for private clients, delegating the task to interns or trainees since it requires no special skills or technical expertise. Private clients may be drawn to the concept, as they can visualize the final result before planting, especially thanks to the stunning illustrations on the products and the website. If you are a cooperative member interested in the Bulb Up solution, feel free to reach out so we can connect you with the company for a special pricing advantage.
