Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure success, plant your bulbs during the autumn or winter months. Choose a location with fertile, well-draining soil that receives partial shade. Space each bulb approximately 10 cm apart at a planting depth equal to three or four times the diameter of the bulb. If you cannot plant them immediately upon arrival, store the bulbs in a cool, dry, well-ventilated, and frost-free environment to prevent rot or premature sprouting. Once the growing season ends, allow the foliage to die back naturally to nourish the bulb for the following year.
