Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, plant your bulbs in autumn in a location that receives full sun. Ensure the planting site features well-drained soil; if planting in pots, use a high-quality peat-free bulb compost and add grit to improve drainage. Plant bulbs at a depth roughly three times their own height. Apply a balanced bulb fertilizer at the time of planting to encourage root development. Once the flowering period has concluded, apply a second round of fertilizer to help the bulb store energy for the following year. Remove dead flower heads once they wilt to keep the plant looking tidy.
