Planting and care

Plant your bulbs from March to April, at a depth of 12cm (5in), spaced 15cm (6in) apart, preferably in a moist location. Apply organic fertilizer at planting and at least once a year. Cultivating in large pots is possible, ensuring regular watering to keep the soil moist, with fertilizer applied every 2 months during growth. Mulch them at the first frost, as they are sensitive to winter moisture and severe frosts, and are moderately hardy north of the Loire. In pots, store them for the winter. They will form beautiful flowering clumps from June to August in a few years. You can prune the foliage after the first frost.
