Aftercare
Plant bulbs in autumn in fertile, free-draining soil, positioning them slightly on their side to help prevent water collecting in the bulb. Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulb can store energy for the following season. Avoid disturbing established bulbs as they perform best when left undisturbed.
