Guía de cuidados

Plant the large bulbs in September-October at 20 cm deep in well-drained, fertile soil in full sun. Plant at a slight angle so water does not collect in the hollow top. Avoid wet soil — this causes rot. After flowering, let foliage die back before removing.

Consejos de poda

Remove spent flowers but leave foliage intact until fully yellowed — it feeds the bulb for next year. Mark the spot to avoid accidentally digging up the bulb. Do not move bulbs — they perform best when undisturbed.
