Growing Instructions
To ensure optimal results, allow adequate space and sunlight, plant at the appropriate depth, feed with a well balanced fertilizer, removing the flowers as soon as they go but allowing the leaves to yellow before removing. Best planted in late fall. In some areas, gardeners treat flower bulbs as annuals. For an informal look, plant in groups in natural swathes or bouquets.
Care Tip
In USDA zones 8-10, refrigerate the bulbs for no less than eight weeks. In the garden, plant them before frost, but not as early as in the northern part of the country. Planting them in a lightly shaded area will keep them cool and prolong blooming.
