What colors are included?

When is the best time to plant them?
These bulbs should be planted in the autumn to ensure they establish roots before the spring growing season.
How tall will the flowers grow?
The mature plants typically reach a height of approximately 40cm.
How long do the flowers last once cut?
With proper care and water changes, the flowers can last up to 10 days in a vase.
Troubleshooting
Bulbs failing to emerge in spring
Check if bulbs were planted too deep, or if the soil has become waterlogged leading to rot. Ensure drainage is adequate.
Stems are weak or drooping
This often occurs due to insufficient light; move containers to a spot with more full sun exposure.
Short vase life
Ensure you are cutting the stems before the bud is fully open and trimming the base of the stems every two days while in water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure healthy growth, follow these setup requirements:
- Timing: Plant in the autumn months before the ground freezes.
- Depth: Bury each bulb at three times its own depth.
- Orientation: Always place the pointed end of the bulb facing upward to avoid growth obstruction.
- Soil & Light: Ensure the site has well-draining soil and receives full sun or light shade.
- Hydration: Water thoroughly immediately after planting to settle the soil around the bulbs.
- Vase Care: When bringing blooms indoors, cut at an angle to maximize water absorption and keep out of direct heat sources to extend longevity.
