Top Tips
- If planted in the ground, they will spread to form good-sized clumps that don't need lifting.
- Add mycorrhizal fungi to the roots before planting to encourage faster and more reliable establishment.
Care Information
- Plant from September to November, 10cm deep, 10cm apart, in fertile, well-drained soil, in full sun to light shade.
- Keep well-watered through the growing season.
- Remove the flower heads once they have faded and apply a weekly fertiliser for best results next season.
- Once the foliage has begun to die back, dig up the bulbs for storing, unless naturalising in the ground. Clean the soil from the bulbs and discard any that appear damaged or diseased. Allow to dry thoroughly, then store at 18-20°C (65-68°F), in a dark, well-ventilated place for replanting in the autumn.
