Planting & Care

Dig a 6-inch hole, set the bulb pointy side up, cover with soil, and water only if the soil is very dry. Plant in informal groups of 5 or more — Maureen's white blooms look best in drifts. In well-drained soil, bulbs will return year after year. Allow foliage to die back naturally after blooming. Excellent for cutting gardens — cut when buds are just opening for the longest vase life.
