Guía de cuidados

Plant the corms in spring at 8-10 cm deep in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly during the growing season. In colder regions, mulch for winter protection. The corms gradually spread to form dense groups.

Consejos de poda

Remove spent flower stems but leave the foliage intact until it dies back in autumn — it feeds the corm for next year. Cut away yellowed leaves once brown. Divide overcrowded clumps every three to four years in spring.
