Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best results, plant your bulbs in autumn when the soil is cool. Choose a location that receives full sun or light partial shade. Dig a hole approximately three times the depth of the bulb to ensure it is protected from frost and pests. Use a small amount of bone meal or a balanced bulb fertilizer at the base of the planting hole to encourage strong root development. Ensure the pointed end of the bulb is facing upward. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally rather than cutting it down immediately, as this allows the bulb to store energy for next year's growth. If planting in containers, ensure they have adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
