Aftercare
Remove faded flowers once blooming has finished, but allow the foliage to die back naturally so the bulbs can store energy for the following season. Plant in well-drained soil to keep bulbs healthy over winter. Lifting and storing bulbs after the foliage has died back may improve flowering performance in heavier soils.
