Use well drained, fertile soil for best root development

Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy during germination

Place seed trays or beds in a bright location with indirect sunlight

How to Grow


Water moderately during active growth and flowering stages

Reduce watering once flowering has finished to prevent bulb rot

Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to support healthy blooms

Allow foliage to die back naturally to strengthen the bulb for next season

Protect plants from extreme heat and excessive moisture

Tips


Plant in groups for a more natural and fuller display

Ensure excellent drainage, especially in heavy soils

Mulch lightly in colder regions to protect bulbs during winter

Avoid disturbing bulbs once established for better naturalization
