Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure success, soak your bulbs in lukewarm water overnight before planting; this rehydrates the bulb and encourages faster root establishment. Plant them at a depth of 5cm in well-drained soil to prevent waterlogging. Always wear gardening gloves when handling the bulbs and planting them to avoid contact with the sap. Ensure the planting site receives full sun for the majority of the day. In areas with particularly heavy clay soil, mix in some grit to improve drainage and help the bulbs thrive throughout the dormant season.
