Planting Instructions

When to Plant:

Soak corms in water for 3–4 hours before planting. Plant in autumn for spring flowers, or spring for summer blooms.

Where to Plant:
Choose a sunny or partially shaded spot with well-drained soil. Ideal for borders, containers, or cutting gardens.

How to Plant:

• Depth: 5 cm (2 inches)
• Spacing: 10 cm (4 inches) apart
• Plant with the knobbly side down; don't worry if you're unsure—they’ll find their way up!

Aftercare:
Water well after planting, then only as needed—avoid soggy soil. Mulch in cold areas. Lift and store corms in autumn if winters are very wet or frosty.
