Planting in Garden Beds

Choose a location with well-draining soil — avoid spots where water pools for more than a few hours after rain. Plant bulbs with the pointed end facing up, 6–7 inches deep and 5 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil. Roots will develop through autumn; foliage and blooms will emerge in spring.

After blooming, allow the foliage to die back naturally — the leaves gather sunlight and feed the bulb for next year. Once yellowed, the dried foliage can be removed. In cooler climates (zones 3–7), bulbs will naturalize and return year after year.

Planting in Containers

Use containers with excellent drainage and quality potting mix. Plant bulbs 4 inches apart and 6–7 inches deep. Place in a sunny to lightly shaded spot. Water once after planting and resume watering when growth appears in spring. Allow foliage to die back naturally after blooming.

Care Tips

• Water about 1 inch per week during active growth
• Withhold water when bulbs are dormant in summer
• Deer, rabbit, and rodent resistant
• Excellent as cut flowers — harvest when buds are just starting to open
