FAQs

When is the best time to plant these bulbs?

The best time to plant the bulbs is in autumn, before the ground freezes.

How deep should I plant the bulbs?

Plant the bulbs approximately 4 inches deep.

What kind of soil do these bulbs need?

They require well-draining soil. Amend heavy soils with compost or grit to improve drainage.

They prefer partial to full sunlight but can also tolerate light shade.

Do I need to water the bulbs after planting?
