Yes, deadhead the faded blooms and allow the leaves to die back completely before removing the old foliage.
Ensure bulbs were planted in a spot with adequate drainage and full sunlight; excessive shade or waterlogged soil can inhibit flowering.
This is often caused by lack of sunlight; ensure the plants are in a position that provides full sun exposure throughout the day.
Check soil moisture levels; while they need well-drained soil, ensure they are not suffering from severe drought during the growing season.
For successful growth, plant the bulbs in late summer or autumn at a depth of 15cm and spaced 13cm apart to allow for proper airflow and root development. They require well-drained soil to prevent rotting during the winter months. After the flowering period ends, it is essential to deadhead the faded blooms. Allow the foliage to die back naturally and turn yellow before removing it, as this process ensures the bulb stores enough energy for the following season. Always wear gloves when handling the bulbs to avoid potential skin irritation.
