Setup, Compatibility & Care
Plant the bulbs between September and December while the soil is still workable but cooling down. Dig holes at a depth approximately three times the height of the bulb, ensuring the pointed end faces upward. Space them about 10-15cm apart to allow for proper root development. These bulbs are highly compatible with most garden soils as long as they are well-draining. During the winter, the bulbs generally require little care, though you should avoid walking on the soil where they are planted to prevent compaction.
