Growing Information

Light Requirements: Plant in full sun for the best flowering, or partial shade where afternoon sun is intense.

Watering: Water after planting and during active growth as needed. Avoid waterlogged soil, which can cause bulbs to rot.

Planting: Plant bulbs in fall, pointed end up, approximately 6 inches deep, following the package directions for bulb size and spacing.

Maintenance: Remove faded flowers after blooming and allow foliage to yellow naturally so the bulbs can replenish their energy.

Long-Term Care: Provide good drainage and allow foliage to die back completely before removing it. Flowering may become less reliable in later years.
