You can plant the tubers in September or October for blooms in the spring. You can also plant them in spring for summer flowers.
They prefer light, sandy soil that drains well.
Plant the pre-soaked tubers 5-8cm (2-3in) deep.
Choose a sheltered, sunny site for optimal growth and flowering.
Water regularly, particularly during dry periods. Avoid overwatering to prevent rot.
Cover with a cloche or dry mulch to protect against extreme winter weather if planted in Autumn.
Plant the bulbs approximately 15cm (6in) apart.
Ensure the bulbs are planted at the correct depth and in well-draining soil. Check for rot.
Make sure the plants receive enough sunlight. Consider soil nutrient levels, and amend with compost if necessary.
Overwatering or poor drainage can cause yellowing. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
Protect bulbs from harsh winter conditions with a cloche or dry mulch.
